Profile Information

Please feel free to provide a short bio about yourself or the work of your organization (no more than 3 paragraphs)
In my 10 year career as an educational developer, I spent most of the time in the Caribbean. I resided in Jamaica and worked for the Caribbean’s development within the field of education through universities, governments, NGOs and United Nations. The most remarkable experience was the time I worked with teachers and students from inner city communities in Kingston. Their schools were affected by violence and poverty. I learnt that Education is the foundation of human development, and a peaceful environment is necessary for a quality education.

I am currently studying peace and conflict at the University of Queensland, focusing on the role of education in peacebuilding. Having a strong focus in education throughout my career, additional studies in peace building, conflict resolution and international relations will expand my capacity and working opportunities in the education field. I hold a Bachelor in Education and Master in Education and Development.
