I am a public health professional holding a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree, with specialized expertise in One Health — an interdisciplinary approach that integrates human, animal, and environmental health. My teaching and mentorship experience spans both formal and informal settings across the Caribbean region, where I have guided university-level students and emerging public health practitioners through complex concepts in epidemiology, health policy, antimicrobial resistance, and community health. As the Founder & CEO of the Sickle Cell Cares Foundation in Dominica, I have consistently translated technical health information into accessible, actionable knowledge for diverse audiences — from patients and caregivers to policymakers and community groups — a skill that directly informs my tutoring approach. I draw on a student-centered, narrative-driven methodology that connects theory to real-world application, making abstract concepts concrete and relatable. My consultancy work with organizations such as the FAO and PAHO has further sharpened my ability to communicate across varying levels of background knowledge, adapting my explanations to meet each learner where they are. Whether working one-on-one or in small group settings, I prioritize critical thinking, contextual understanding, and building genuine confidence in my students.
