I was born on the island of Antigua and Barbuda surrounded by vivid colors. This influenced my drawing and painting style. I began drawing and painting at a young age. Since that time, in addition to gallery showings for my paintings, I have illustrated two children’s books.
While painting and illustrating are my artistic strengths, I also have superior analytical skills.
I have over 19 years of experience drafting and negotiating a wide range of commercial contracts, ranging from small artist deals to multi-million-dollar transactions for critical services used at healthcare and financial institutions.
