​

How did you first learn about architecture and when did you decide that built environment profession was an area of interest for you?

I always enjoyed designing and drawing, under- standing how things work and its effect on peo- ple. From a teenager it would appear my mind was made up.

 

What do you do?

As the principal of an emerging practice in the Caribbean, my work centers around residential
& commercial projects, gaining new clients, and curating the adjacent design needs of the clients, from traditional services to graphic design.

​

What excites you in the work you do?

I’m thrilled by the idea of good design being ac- cessible to more people

​

Who or what inspires you professionally?

I believe a rising tide should lift all boats so inspi- ration comes from the reciprocity of family and peers. I’m inspired by other young architects that desire to define their space, design identity and evolve a Caribbean Architecture.

 

What is your proudest professional accomplishment or achievement?

Starting my practice in 2019
