Not so “little”
“From a very young age, I was always told that I was an old soul,” Martin told Mediaplanet, “so the idea of playing an older woman who’s given a second chance at life seemed perfect.”
NAACP Image Awards
“Having the support of my community is very important to me. I am very proud to have been recognized by the NAACP for my work and continue to strive to be a great example of black excellence.”
Finding role models
“I am a huge fan of Donald Glover because he is an award-winning actor, producer, director, comedian, writer, and Grammy-nominated artist who uses all his gifts in the most amazing ways. I find it empowering to have a platform where young girls can see someone on screen that looks like them.” Over the next decade, she aims to continue producing projects that “employ and empower people of color from various backgrounds and cultures.”
Looking to the future
“[I want to keep] inspiring and encouraging future generations to achieve their goals and dreams.”
We cannot wait to see what the future holds for this incredibly talented young star! Stay tuned because we are sure that there is much much more to come!
