About

A life built on the
pursuit of justice

I have spent most of my professional life sitting in the space between people in conflict and the resolution they need. As a Mediator and International Arbitrator, I have seen what happens when the law is adequate on paper but structurally unable to deliver justice in practice. That gap is what drives my research. It is also what brought me to Law.

My academic journey has taken a path that reflects the way I have always worked, across disciplines and across the boundaries that often separate theory from lived experience. I hold a Bachelor of Law from the University of London, a Master of Human Resource Management from the University of Buckingham, a Master of Laws from Liverpool John Moores University, and a Level 7 Diploma in Public Administration, and I am currently completing Doctoral Research in Law in the United Kingdom at the intersection of Employment Law and Employment and Commercial Dispute Resolution, with a specific focus on the Commonwealth Caribbean.

My research examines a question that matters deeply to the region I come from. Caribbean workers and employers have access to Mediation and conciliation services, but those services frequently lack the statutory enforcement mechanisms that would make their outcomes binding and meaningful. My doctoral thesis makes the case for reform, drawing on comparative analysis across Caribbean jurisdictions and international frameworks.

Beyond the academic work, I have spent years working in operations management and the creative industries, advising on intellectual property, contractual matters, and Employment and Commercial Dispute Resolution in the music and entertainment sector. I am also a writer. The 16th Sentence is the most personal thing I have ever committed to the page.
