The programme kicked-started my career in sport, particularly football; I was unemployed at the time. It was through networking and the connections made during the program that I started working at the Sport Company of Trinidad and Tobago, and the rest is history. Today, I am the General Secretary of the largest sub-confederation in football – Caribbean Football Union, having been the General Secretary of a semi-professional league, as well as the Trinidad and Tobago Football Association.
