As Election Day approaches, every vote becomes a powerful statement — a declaration of the leadership, vision and values we want guiding our community forward.

For me, this campaign isn’t about rhetoric or empty promises. It’s about action, solutions and a deep commitment to the people of Constituency 2. I have dedicated my life to service, not just talk. Whether expanding access to education, investing in our youth, or preserving the heritage that defines us, my focus has always been on creating opportunities that uplift and strengthen our community.

Expanding access to education

As a lecturer at Bermuda College, I introduced the institution’s first online course, making higher education more accessible to all.

Preserving our heritage

As president of Ocean View Golf Course, I led efforts to document and showcase its rich history, ensuring future generations honour and appreciate our legacy.

Investing in our youth

As president of the Bermuda Junior Golf Association, I introduced middle-school students to golf through physical education classes and interschool competitions, providing access to a sport that teaches discipline, patience and strategy.

Empowering future generations

My commitment to youth development extends beyond Bermuda. In Ghana, I created a programme that continues to serve more than 40 children, using education, sport and character-building as tools for empowerment.

This election is about choosing leadership that delivers results — leadership that values action over words and is committed to building a future for all of us, not just a select few.

I do not take your trust lightly. My track record speaks for itself and my commitment to Constituency 2 is unwavering.

On February 18 at Penno’s Wharf Cruise Ship Terminal, I ask for your vote — not just for me, but for the progress, unity and leadership our community deserves.

Vote for experience. Vote for action. Vote for a future we can build together.
