The journey of a visual designer and technology specialist
Discover the philosophy, heritage, and passion behind my work
My path began in the vibrant landscapes of Dominica, where I developed an early fascination with both art and technology. Growing up surrounded by natural beauty and rich cultural traditions, I learned to appreciate the harmony between creativity and structure.
My professional journey started in visual design, where I mastered Adobe Creative Suite and developed a keen eye for detail. This foundation became the springboard for my exploration into the technical aspects of design, including web development and Python programming.
Today, I specialize in creating solutions that bridge the gap between visual aesthetics and technical implementation. My work spans multiple domains including UI/UX design, API integration, security testing, and financial technology solutions.
What drives me is the belief that technology should serve human needs while preserving cultural heritage. This philosophy informs both my professional work and personal initiatives like the Kalinago Territory digital preservation project.
This guiding principle shapes everything I create. It reminds me that innovation doesn't mean abandoning foundations, but rather building upon them with respect and understanding.

I dedicate at least 10 hours weekly to professional development:
As a descendant of the Kalinago people, I carry a deep respect for indigenous knowledge and traditions. This heritage informs my approach to technology and design.
My connection to Kalinago culture is not just ancestral - it's a living relationship that influences how I view problem-solving, community, and sustainability.
The Kalinago Territory Initiative represents my commitment to preserving cultural heritage through technology. This project combines:
Digital archives of Kalinago vocabulary and expressions
Recording oral histories and traditional practices
Bringing digital skills to Kalinago Territory youth
