In the last edition of Guyana Times Entertainment, the nine delegates competing for the title of Miss Region Three Culture 2017 were revealed. For the next few weeks leading up to the pageant billed for April 1, we will feature each delegate thus giving our readers an insight into their lifestyles. This week, we will feature Kasherell Tiffany Payne. The 21-year-old beauty was born on January 25, 1996 under the lucky zodiac sign Aquarius to Peggy Walcott and Cedric Payne. She is the youngest of eight siblings and has grown to become a phenomenal, humble and compassionate individual. 
She is a tertiary-level graduate.
Currently, she is a proud licensed practical Nurse, attached to the West Demerara Regional Hospital and an aspiring social worker, who aims to transform lives and contribute positively to society. In her leisure time, she enjoys modelling, dancing, singing, drawing and painting. She makes the most of new opportunities and enjoys meeting new and interesting people. Her favourite quotes are “a dream does not become reality by wishing, it takes courage, determination and hard work” and “Be the change you would want to see in the world”. These are motivational messages that she would encourage anyone to live by.
During her years of work at the medical unit, she has witnessed the rapid growth of Guyana’s suicide rate and its prevalence among young people. Thus bringing awareness of suicide and its prevention to the people is her optimum goal, the precise reason it is her platform in the pageant. She noted that suicide was everyone’s business, and called on society to make a change.
