I particularly enjoy areas related to economics, statistics, forecasting, research methodologies, market analysis, strategic planning, computer technology and general business consultancy. I love being engaged in almost anything entrepreneurial particularly in small business development activities. Over my career, I have been involved in organizing and hosting several workshops and seminars. Are you stuck in a phase where you cannot move from the idea or innovation? Looking for a comprehensive but simple tool to organize your business model? Looking to develop something concise and focused for your business model which would eventual lead to a well thought out plan? Then you should buy my courses! Personal Objectives To provide sound analysis, advice and strategic plans as a Senior Researcher, Economist, Analyst and/or Business Consultant that will build and/or maintain value, positively influence decision makers and ensure the achievement of quality results. My Core Competencies Strategic Planning Technical Reports & Studies Economic and Commodity Market Analysis Statistical Analysis Business Consulting Utilization of Productivity Suites (MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint & Publisher) Project Proposal Development Sustainable Indicators Development Experiences My professional experiences span over twelve years in the financial sector, public sector and educational institutions combined. In the financial sector, I was involved in both commercial banking and investment services for prominent companies. In the public sector, I serve as the Economist at a Government entity which directs policies, regulations and legislation. I am also intimately involved in a number of commitments to progress projects and programs. I participate, to varying degrees (facilitator, adviser, board member), in the implementation of several projects and programs which receive funding from multinational organizations. These often include visiting organizations across the globe to participate as a country representative to make presentations, give advise and participate in technical committees and task-forces. Besides these activities, I work closely with individual businesses and small venture start-ups in the Caribbean, United States, India and the United Kingdom that seek to improve their processes. Education I have pursued studies in business (entrepreneurship, new company development, etc.), research, economics, computer technology along with courses geared towards management and corporate and strategic and planning. Fairly rounded I think.
