He has spent almost 15 years in the Tourism and Hospitality Industry – as General Manager and Sales and Marketing Director at Chukka Caribbean Adventure’s White River Valley Property.

In 2014 he transitioned to being the Director of Sales and Marketing at Tropical Battery Limited- a leading distributor of automotive batteries in Jamaica.
