MORE ABOUT JULIET’S BACKGROUND:

When Juliet’s guardian passed away and she could no longer obtain the fees to assist in obtaining her education, she established a piggery unit to provide for herself and her siblings.  After rejoining school with the help of C.R.O, she received high praise for her leadership skills from her teachers. She was the Health Prefect, Head Girl of School, and was actively involved with counseling other students and participating in charity work for her Church and community.
