Born in rural Jamaica, I lived in Kingston for forty years and experienced the evolution of the inner city both directly and indirectly. An engineer, educator and university lecturer for over thirty years, I lead or participated in several intervention initiatives in a number of inner city communities, including research supporting an empirical link between the process of construction and the rise of informal settlements - the base for inner city communities.
A staunch advocate of alternative approaches to social, educational and cultural issues including inner city crime fighting, I have written articles on non-traditional approaches to education, alternative management systems, non-traditional materials, low income housing solutions.
I currently reside in a suburb of Miami, Florida where I am involved in research and writing.view less
