Something surprising Americans don’t know about your country? That Haiti has an abundance of tourist destinations. Favorite vacation spot in your country? Jeremie because it is home and is a quiet, peaceful location. Historical figure you most admire? Toussaint Louverture because against all odds he had the political acumen to set the stage for Haiti’s independence.

Washington social event you look forward to the most every year? Passport DC because I enjoy welcoming the general public to the embassy. How do you like to spend your free time? Playing with my 1-year-old daughter, and when I have a free moment joining a pickup soccer game. Languages you speak? French, Creole and English. I also learned Spanish while spending time in Central America, but I don’t get to practice it very often. Dish you miss the most when you are away from home? Legume, a Haitian vegetable stew. Favorite Washington restaurant? Range. Ambassadors and their embassies have a long tradition of supporting causes/ institutions championed by the Washington community. What will you and the embassy be involved with in the coming year? Step Afrika!, Roots of Development and the Smithsonian African Museum of Art. Top issue on your agenda? Strengthening Haiti’s economic relations with the U.S. — enticing more U.S. companies to come and do business in Haiti. @EmbassyOfHaiti
