I studied for a BSc. Accounting at the UWI, Mona and it was a great experience. The academic studies were sufficiently challenging and led to a myriad of professional opportunities in my field. The programme director at the time was passionate about holistic development and ensured core courses provided real world direction and experience which gave us the opportunity to enter the workforce and open businesses ahead of the typical learning curve associated with being a young professional.
The University itself provided a unmatched social experience with its many a diverse clubs, societies, groups, activities and events. Some of these activities allowed me to join internationally acclaimed groups, representing Jamaica on the global scale as a musician, and has provided others with similar opportunities in their respective crafts and arts.
