She firmly believes in giving back. She has served as Treasurer of the Executive Committee of The University of The West Indies Alumni Association (Barbados) Chapter and the Health and Wellness Committee since 2018. Having recently retired from her professional career, she volunteers as Treasurer of the Barbados Golf Association and the Sharon Moravian Church. Additionally, she spends time introducing golf to juniors and assisting the Special Olympics golf students. As she reflected on her career, the Barbadian said that the UWI has played a pivotal role in her achievements. “It is through attending the institution that I have achieved so much. Cave Hill has been a great experience for me, and I still have a lot of good memories and friends that I met during my time there. I still remember some lecturers who greatly impacted my journey like Wendel McClean, Neville Duncan, Dr Ralph Gonsalves, Dr Armond Layne, Dr Bradley Niles and Dr Sakie. She had some words of advice to current students and those who have graduated from the institution. “I will recommend to all students past and present, to continue studying, don’t stop at your first degree, learn as much as you can, read a lot, have a thirst for knowledge and give back to your alma mater after you become an alumnus. It is through my engagement with Cave Hill that I can say that I have had a very successful career.”
