Lyrique Richards

Born and raised in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada, to immigrant parents from Jamaica and Antigua, Lyrique’s Caribbean heritage is a cornerstone of her identity. From ten years as an Afro-Caribbean dancer to being an alumna of the Afro-Caribbean Cotillion program, she carries her culture proudly, using it to foster understanding and celebrate diversity. 

Passionate about uplifting her peers, Lyrique is dedicated to inspiring those around her to embrace their authenticity and potential. A natural storyteller, she uses her voice to encourage and empower others. 

Guided by her mantra, "Just do you, and you’ll leave your mark," Lyrique is determined to make an impact.
