Impact and Legacy:  

In reflecting upon my life’s contributions and the legacy I hope to leave behind, it becomes clear that my most notable achievements stem not just from my personal endeavours but profoundly through the lives of my three children. My eldest son, affectionately known as “Baby Bear,” is not only training to become a ship captain but is also renowned for his boundless generosity and willingness to assist anyone in need. My second son, currently navigating the rigorous journey of medical school with a remarkable 4.0 GPA, is not just an exceptional student but also an avid cook and a pillar of support for his peers, earning me the affectionate title of their extended “mummy” My youngest, the princess of our household, embodies kindness and wisdom beyond her years, serving as a trusted advisor to her circle of friends.

My children’s paths have opened avenues for me to contribute significantly to our community. Serving as the Treasurer of the Scout Group for fifteen years and the San Fernando District for three in Trinidad and Tobago, I was honoured with “The Chief Scout Medal of Commendation” for my service. Additionally, my involvement in my daughter’s school Parent Association for six years—holding positions as Treasurer and Chairman—has allowed us to make substantial improvements, including the installation of a complete camera system, the acquisition of 66 new computers, the reconstruction of guard booths, and various beautification projects. These roles have not only enabled me to contribute materially to these institutions but also to foster a spirit of community and collective responsibility.

Through my children’s accomplishments and characters, I see the embodiment of my aspirations for a better world. They are my legacy, a testament to the values of kindness, excellence, and community service that I hold dear. Their achievements and the impact we’ve collectively made on our community are the most profound contributions I could hope to offer, embodying the legacy of positive influence and unwavering support I aspire to leave behind.
