Alicia Neckles

Alicia Neckles is native to Trinidad; she prefers to be called "Inkin." At age 17, she moved to Canada and lived in both Hamilton and Toronto, Ontario, for over 9 years.

The inspiration for this book stems from memories of spending time with her niece and nephews in Canada. Inkin moved to Atlanta, Georgia, in 2005 and is in a committed relationship with her husband. She loves to dabble with art.

Her artistic creativity flows with nature; she creates freestyle drawings with acrylic paints, learns new recipes, and is always interested in trying new craft ideas. Inkin likes going on vacations, traveling around the United States, and other Caribbean Island destinations. Her bucket list includes Europe and Africa
