People with Sway — Naomi Cowan
Occupation:
A former Miss Teen Jamaica, Cowan’s good looks and sparkling personality have landed her the plum role as the host of Caribana’s Feel De Vibe. The show is a webcast series that keeps viewers in tune and informed about all things Caribana.
Contribution:
“Basically, this year we are bringing the festival to viewers in a way that will give them experiences that they would only get if they were there. We’re not just about highlighting the events, we’re about highlighting the things that are unique to Caribana and to Toronto.”
Inspiration:
“I was born and raised in Jamaica. I’ve only lived in Canada for about four years, so I think it’s a great opportunity because I am able to work on a project that highlights my culture. The festival itself is so much more than just a carnival. It’s a way to showcase our culture to North America and to the world.”
