About
Jamaican-Canadian creator, mompreneur and lifelong learner working where culture, travel and technology meet.
For nearly ten years in Canadian higher education, my colleagues and I answered the same questions every day, across email, social media and the phone, while trying to do the real work of marketing, recruiting and supporting international students.
Small business owners live that same pressure. So I build friendly AI assistants that handle the repetitive questions, so you can focus on growth and never miss a chance to connect.
