Zemi Stewart
Zemi Stewart describes herself as a hard-heel island girl who grew up catching lizards and frogs. Originally from Gregory Town, Eleuthera, Zemi moved to Nassau as a teen after the sudden death of her mother. Through writing poetry and short stories, Zemi found a way to manage her pain and eventually heal. Her book, “I Gave It to the Pages” is a collection of prose and poetry that follows her journey through motherlessness and womanhood.
Zemi graduated from the University of Waterloo (ON, Canada) with a B.A. in Mathematical Economics in June 2017. Though a creative at heart, Zemi works as a business analyst and volunteers as a mathematics tutor. One of her greatest desires is to inspire young women to overcome adverse circumstances and attain self-worth.
Recently married, Zemi lives in New Providence with her husband and two Royal Bahamian Potcakes, Brave, and Beauty.
