Coming from a small island in the Caribbean I felt like an artist in a vacuum in my very early years, because I had many levels of creativity with no how to truly express it to the audience it deserved, but over the years technologies emerged and evolved and that kind of level the playing field, So I am ready for the world. I am a founding member of the Barbados Film and Video Association because making art is my Passion. My 30-year commercial media career started with a strong background in graphic art then transitioned to indie filmmaking, where I honed my skill set on music videos, a TV show, TV commercials, Shorts both local and abroad, and one feature film on the island.
As a visual artist, color and composition came naturally with an acute sense of detail, but writing always had a question mark for me because It was self taught, So for confirmation, I attended the "Rewrite Techniques Workshop" (2019) with Pilar Alessandra (Studio City California.). I came away from that workshop confirming that all I have deduced by watching many years of Movies and Television alone with books and online research were accurate down to the most minute detail and that I was truly ready for the world.
