My goal is to continue my education in the US to pursue my career in Kinesiology and Exercise Science.
I started my swimming careet at the late age of 13 at the Alpha Sharks Swim Club in Barbados, however this did not deter me as I am a very determine individual. I soon went on to represent Barbados at the Goodwill games in 2016 and 2017 in which I was the Vice Captain. In July 2017 I started Triathlon and made it to the Carifta team to represent Barbados in the first inaugural Carifta Triathlon, Aquathlon and Mixed Relay Championships.
In addition to swimming and triathlon, I also participarted in Track & Field and Karate. I am a very positive and focus young man and would be an asset to any aspiring college.
