She is a local artist who was forced to live in a tent city after the devastating earthquake in Haiti in 2010. While waiting for better days, she made herself the self-appointed mayor and took charge of things. She addressed the abuses and rapes against women. She made sure kids got to school. But most importantly, she lured women away from the career of prostitution and encouraged them to become artists. She now teaches these women to create and sell their works.
