"He who asks questions, can avoid no answers." - An African Proverb
Why I’m Here

A West African Princess by ancestry, a native Hoosier by birth, a shop-a-holic Jersey girl by choice, this Emmy Award-Winning Television Journalist is always live at 5 with a smile, striving to get it right…introducing, Sia Nyorkor.

 

As a child of the 80s and teen of the 90s, MTV was literally, "my so-called life"!  It was the only place where I could get my daily fix of music, news and pop culture.  So you can only imagine that I am THRILLED to be a part of this team!

 

I am an African-American in every sense of the word. Born to immigrant parents from  Liberia,  West Africa, I am truly a product of the American Dream.  We made it but there is still much to do.  I am passionate about life, my peoples and my community.   I enjoy books, culture and intelligent conversation so drop me a line and let's talk!  I am here to connect with other socially conscious people and I hope that you are too.

 

Peace and Blessings.
