avid sports fan, soccer player, basketball player & musician

I love partaking in sports it allows you to meet new people & it truly brings out the competitors in all of us, as recent as 2022 I represented DHL caribbean as the goalkeeper for the Caribbean Hurricanes in our Americas Cup competition in Orlando. In my younger years I played in our local second division basketball league. I was one of the founding member of Fully Loaded a local reggae band & for about 10 years gave locals and tourist alike a reggae experience for the ages, while performing original music and covering some of the hits for the greats like Bob Marley. We shared the stage during the Barbados Reggae Festivals with the likes of Barrington Levy, Beres Hammond & The Morgan Heritage Band to name a few. My true passion right now is my family, while helping my two beautiful children navigate the ups & down of growing up in an ever changing world an enjoying what life has to offer us on a daily basis.
