About Me

Who am I?

The National Flag
. These two Caribbean islands are considered tourists' paradise.

My Journey

Education

My secondary and initial tertiary education took place in St. Kitts. Then I pursued further studies at the University of the West Indies(St. Augustine campus).

Employment

Then, after completing studies at the University (U.W.I), I joined the faculty of the local community college, Clarence Fitzroy Bryant College in St. Kitts. As an educator, I am excited when I observe students engaging in creative and critical thinking as well as doing and trying things in 'non- traditional' ways.
