I had to forfeit that pursuit for family reasons.In 1967 I returned to Haiti in hopes of pursuing college level studies but opted for the opportunity of a residency in the USA.In 1968 I moved to New York, USA and started a new phase in my life. I have attained the reality of emancipation being financially responsible for my life. It was then that I landed my 1st ever employment. The same year, I attended the Delehanty Institute in NY for the study of electronic technology.In 1971 I relocated to Miami Florida where I landed my first employment as a trainee in the field of Medical Imaging Apparatus maintenance.In 1972 I attended the University of Miami Jackson Memorial Hospital for the studies of Radiologic and Nuclear-Medicine Technology.I worked in the field for the better part of the 70's.In 1975 I joined the US Army and graduated from Basic Training. And discharged from service.I got married in 1978. That same year I went back to Haiti taking a temporary job as a technical advisor for the public health department.In 1979 I went back to the US in Philadelphia Pennsylvania, worked for GIrard Hospital in the Radiology department until 1985.In 1985 I worked at Community Healthcare in Philadelphia in charge of their X-Ray department until 1992.In 1992 I engaged in a partnership with a Dr friend of mine in Com U Med, a Mobile EKG / X-Ray / Holter-Monitor Service to people with mobility challenges in Philadelphia. The demand for our service was overwhelming and it was a challenge finding qualified workers. Because of that we had to dissolve our service in 1996.In 1996 through 1998 I attended Lincoln University in Philadelphia and earned a Masters Degree in Administration.IN 2005 I entered Law School in Haiti and graduated in 2009 and was accepted in the BAR that same year.In 1996 I opened Oak Lane Medical Center in Philadelphia which is in operation to date.During all these motions I have built a 30 room hotel in Haiti and maintain a part-time operation in a Law Practice in Haiti. Last but not least, I successfully raised 4 children that are the pride of my life.view less
