Meet the Author

Hi, my name is Zy'Kieya (Za-Ki-Ya) Cooper, I am 17 years old and officially a senior in High School! 

Little Bit About Me: 

I love listening to music, it's so therapeutic and my safe thing to do when I get anxiety, etc. Some of my favorite artists are Drake, Jhene Aiko, Travis Scott, and Jayla Darden (she's so underrated). Obviously, there is more but that's just a brief few to know. 

I love Basketball love keeping up with the latest thing in it to fashion, tea, and the drama. I no longer play but you get the idea. I specifically love college basketball and the NBA. 2 of My favorite players happen to be my NBA crushes. (Devin Booker, D'Angelo Russell, and Lonzo Ball). 

I'm real tall in person I'm 6'1 might be taller and I'm not capping. 

I love and adore fashion from styling to shopping. I'm also a big lover of decorating and putting things together in a space. 

My aspirations are to go to college and experience that time in my life. I officially think I'm going to study to become an elementary school teacher. My college process has me considering different majors for different careers. Like fashion merchandising to become a stylist. Journalism to become a tv sports broadcaster etc. You get the idea. 

I'm also the oldest of 10 grandchildren and the oldest of two kids. I have one younger sister who will be 14 this year in August. 

I have deep passions and beliefs in many things, but I always try to understand other reasons for certain views, etc.
