I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business Communication from DeVry University and a Master of Public Administration from Keller Graduate School of Management. I also earned a certification in Adult Experiential Learning through the Dominica Adult Education Division, which has shaped the way I design lessons to be interactive, practical, and centered on the learner’s goals.

My teaching experience spans a variety of settings and student groups. Earlier this year, I worked with the Government of Dominica as an instructor, training members of the local population in business communication, entrepreneurship, and business management. I also taught cosmetic formulation courses both through the Adult Education Division and at the Dominica State Prison, working with adult learners from different backgrounds. In my professional career, I regularly create training programs for employees across multiple departments, designing the curriculum and leading sessions to improve communication, technical skills, and organizational operations.

I have worked with students at different levels, ranging from young adults to professionals and I adapt my methods depending on the learner’s goals. My approach is rooted in real-world application: I believe students learn best when they can connect lessons directly to their work, studies, or personal goals. Whether it’s improving Business English for a career opportunity, mastering communication for leadership roles, or learning the foundations of entrepreneurship and technology, I make sure each session is engaging, supportive, and tailored to the student’s needs.

Business

As the founder of several startups across technology, consulting, and consumer goods, I bring more than a decade of hands-on entrepreneurial experience into my teaching. I hold a Master of Public Administration and a Bachelor’s degree in Business Communication, and I have taught entrepreneurship and business management through the Government of Dominica’s adult education programs, including workshops for community members and learners at the Dominica State Prison. These experiences gave me the opportunity to work with adult learners from diverse backgrounds, helping them understand the principles of entrepreneurship and develop real-world business plans. In addition to my formal teaching, I mentor employees and early-stage entrepreneurs by guiding them through business operations, financial planning, and strategic growth. My teaching approach emphasizes practical application, using case studies, real business challenges, and interactive discussions to prepare students for the realities of managing and scaling ventures. Students who study entrepreneurship with me not only gain knowledge but also the confidence to put their ideas into action.
Project Management

Project Management

With over seven years of experience leading technology projects at Ross University School of Medicine and additional leadership roles in fintech and govtech startups, I have extensive expertise in managing projects from ideation through full implementation. I hold graduate and undergraduate degrees in business and public administration, and I have developed and delivered training programs for employees at all levels of an organization. This includes guiding teams through SaaS integrations, system upgrades, workflow redesign, and digital transformation initiatives. I also served as a headliner for the African Caribbean Sustainability and Investment Summit (ACSIS), leading an international session on fintech and cybersecurity. My teaching style is structured yet flexible: I focus on breaking down complex technical concepts into practical steps that learners can apply, whether they are new to technology or looking to refine their project management skills. Students can expect engaging lessons that draw from real-world projects and professional experiences, helping them build both technical understanding and leadership skills.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Business Communication and a Master of Public Administration, along with a certification in Adult Experiential Learning. Over the past decade, I have combined my academic background with real-world experience to teach business English and professional communication in a wide range of contexts. My focus has always been on helping learners build confidence in speaking, writing, and presenting, especially in professional and entrepreneurial settings. I have taught business communication formally through government programs in Dominica, where I trained adults in workplace communication, management, and entrepreneurship. I also design and deliver training materials in my professional career, where I coach employees across different departments on business communication, presentations, and client interactions. My approach is practical and student-centered, with lessons tailored to each learner’s goals, ensuring that they can immediately apply new skills in their careers or studies.
