I was born in Jamaica W.I, raised in the Bronx, N.Y and spent some time in Polk County, Florida. I am an avid reader, world traveler, and aspiring polyglot. I fell in love with the Spanish language in Jamaica where I was introduced to Dora the Explorer, while I lived in Spanish town, St. Catherine. (Go figure). I enjoy watching series and movies from countries like South Korea, Taiwan,India, Ghana, Nigeria, Colombia, Mexico and picking up some linguistic gems along the way. Not to mention trying out the cuisine as well. I am a lifelong learner. In my time in school, I have acquired a BA in Spanish for Translation & Interpretation from Andrews University (Berrien Springs, MI) and MA in Spanish: Language and Literature/ Advanced Certificate in Caribbean and Latin American Studies from St. John's University (Queens,NY). My best learning experience, however, was my study abroad year at River Plate Adventist University (Entre Rios,Argentina). My Spanish skills blossomed there. I have worked as a Special Education Coordinator, Direct Support Professional, Language Tutor and also in the Human Services sector as a Case Manager for unaccompanied minors. I believe my life work is to advocate for the "least of these " in whatever capacity life leads me to.
