My current research is an effort to interrogate the forces that impact educational outcomes, particularly, in vulnerable educational districts within Trinidad & Tobago. My research emerges from an intense desire to reimage the current education landscape towards greater equity and diversity in a manner that values cultural nuances and the uniqueness of learners.
