From Dreaming of Law to Leading the Arts

As a young girl, Kervy Delcy was once convinced she was destined for a career in law. She vividly remembers playing the role of a lawyer in an after-school program at her Catholic school and refusing to take off her robe after the performance. However, life had other plans. A spirited nun named Sister Jeanne, who sang and danced with her, helped awaken Kervy’s love of music, setting her on a different path. At five years old, her mother introduced her to poetry, a craft that Kervy quickly mastered, becoming the chosen speaker for Haitian Flag Day celebrations every year. As she grew, Kervy’s creative gifts expanded. By age nine, she was waking up with original melodies composed in her dreams, unknowingly developing her talent for songwriting.
