Deronke Adeokun

24 from London, United Kingdom

Model, Actor, Musician

I'm a visually impaired young lady who is determined to succeed in all the things I aspire to do. I am a person who is willing and able to learn things which I do not already know. I'm interested in becoming established as a singer, song writer and actress. As I write poetry, I intend to get a book published. Also, I am interested in writing scripts, (mini scripts to begin with, as I have little experience in that department.) With God on my side, the opportunity and determination, I believe I will go far.
