    <description>I am based in Kingston, Jamaica where I  document sustainable development and heritage issues and lecture in the Communication Arts &amp; Technology programme at the University of Technology. I hold a MA Photography from the University of Bolton (Dalian) and a B.Sc. in Geography from the University of the West Indies.

Since 2009 I have been a member of the Demotix agency and am a former freelance photographer for Reuters, former photography editor of The Gleaner newspaper and a three-term past president of the Photography Club of Jamaica. I enjoy writing as well as shooting, and have work  in several publications including Jamaica: Absolutely (2010); Moods of Jamaica (2004); A Tapestry of Jamaica: The Best of SkyWritings (2003); Guide to the Blue and John Crow Mountains (2008) and Insight Guide: Jamaica (2000).

I have participated in several group exhibitions, including the 2011 international  exhibition of sculpture and photography, &#8220;In Family Unity &#8211; Unity of the World&#8221; in Moscow, the 2009 Edna Manley College Faculty Show and the 2002 group exhibition, &#8220;Private Thought, Public Spaces&#8221; at the Mutual Gallery. In 2002 I was selected as an artist in the &#8220;Liquid Light&#8221; photography exchange and exhibition between Jamaica and the East Midlands of England.

In 2001 I won a highly commended award in the Commonwealth Photographic Competition and in 2003 won five awards in the 2003 Kodak Professional Caribbean Calendar Contest. I have worked with Frommer&#8217;s Travel Guides, The United States Agency for International Development (USAID), The British Council, Picture House Centre for Photography, (Leicester, England), the Environmental Foundation of Jamaica and Jamaica&#8217;s National Environment &amp; Planning Agency (NEPA).</description>
