I'm a Kingston-based artist who specialises in watercolour illustrations influenced by my love for ancient Japanese art forms and her Caribbean background. I create one-of-a-kind illustrations using watercolour and ink techniques, producing works that ultimately pay homage to my childhood experiences and aspirations. I also use my artistic inventiveness to inform myself in other areas like creative consultancy, content creation and event planning. I studied various forms of visual and performing arts extensively throughout my high school career and, in 2017, successfully earned a certificate in Art & Design at Niagara College in Ontario, Canada. I also have a background in performance arts, having studied Theatre Arts at Interlochen Arts Academy in Michigan, United States. Though I specialise in watercolour, I also dabbles in acrylic, ink illustrations, wall murals and digital art. My depth of talent extends to lettering art for greeting cards and merchandise designs; as well as illustrations for novels, book covers and educational texts. In 2021, my art collection is being digitally showcased on Tricera Art’s website - a contemporary art gallery featuring artworks by young artists from over 126 countries. In 2022, my artwork was featured on the English website for major Japanese television station, Fuji TV. I believe art can inspire a deeper connection between humans and the world around them.

For 20 years I worked with a leading web development company starting as a junior web developer and rising to the post of Chief Operating Officer. During this time I was responsible for developing well over 300 websites, ranging from simple marketing sites to complex booking engines and e-commerce portals. I am currently a free-lance web developer and technology consultant. I mainly work with a Barbados web development company, and a Canadian marketing agency, as well as with clients with whom I have developed strong professional relationships over many years. I am very interested in emerging technologies and have recently completed courses on chatbot development, and am working on a side project using Flutter for cross-platform mobile app development. My philosophy is that websites are becoming just one cog in a large marketing & fulfillment wheel. That wheel needs to meet and interact with customers wherever they are - through social, on mobile, with voice assistants, etc., as well as via search and direct channels. Let's chat about how my skills and experience can help your business succeed and grow.

Art for me has always been a means to express myself, what I was feeling or going through at the time just visually. Without the ability to actualize an idea or concept, art would not exist. My work is a constant search for the best way to interpret the ideas that I have about myself and the world I live in. I do not limit myself to one medium, style, or concept. The pieces I create are inspired by everyday life and creation in general and how it can all be linked together Inspiration and ideas change. Knowledge changes. Each piece I create is simultaneously an extension from the past, where I’ve come from and what I’ve learned, as well as a preview of the future, where I’m going.

As a Designer and Illustrator, I thoroughly appreciate the process of creating concepts and collaborating with a team to bring ideas to life. After many years of honing my skills, I embarked upon my professional career in the creative industry when I obtained a diploma in animation from the University of Trinidad and Tobago which gave me all the fundamentals I needed and later on worked at an ad agency with a team of highly skilled professionals. Over the years I've done work for big companies, illustrated published books, and assisted in major campaigns and events which were quite successful. Whether it’s working with a team of highly skilled professionals, day to day clients or working Idependantly. I look forward to the challenge of meeting the demands of the creative industry and exceeding client expectations. This combination of experience, skill and a strong work ethic enables me to adapt to any creative requirement and as such be an invaluable asset.
