In Her Own Words
About her
“Everyone you meet asks if you have a career, if you’re married, or if you own a house, as if life were a grocery list.
But no one ever asks: are you happy?”
Heath Ledger (1979–2008)
I’m a hardworking professional, chronologically honest, emotionally youthful and, according to friends, warm-hearted and affectionate. I enjoy my work and still appreciate the interest and sense of purpose it brings to my days.
After several years living and working in the United States, mainly Chicago, I returned home with a broader perspective on life and a lasting appreciation of different cultures. I still enjoy meeting interesting people and hearing about lives quite different from my own.
Away from work, life is fairly uncomplicated. I enjoy, keeping physically active, reading, good conversation, sharp, and socially aware humour. Music has always been a constant in my life, Classical, Jazz, Blues, Motown and quite a bit in between. Some weekends are planned, others aren't, and I'm quite happy with both.
I love getting away too, particularly to the countryside and places where life feels a little different. Tuscany and rural France are my favourites, beautiful scenery, good food and wine, and time to unwind. There are still plenty of places I'd like to discover.
Giving back matters to me. I occasionally volunteer with charities supporting children’s health and wellbeing and remain connected to initiatives across the Caribbean.
My ethnicity is something of a beautiful mosaic, and my Arawak heritage is a part of that which I carry with pride and quiet gratitude.
About her ideal match
I'm seeking someone kind, captivating, grounded and emotionally aware; confident without needing to prove it, with his own interests and friendships and a genuine desire to share his life with someone.
I believe my expectations are realistic, and understand two people cannot agree about everything. I'd like us to enjoy one another immensely, to laugh, talk, be affectionate, trust each other and be completely comfortable being ourselves.
Ideally, there will be that indefinable something too: deep affection and admiration, friendship, intimacy and a feeling that we've found something rather special.
I’m here to find a genuine connection with someone who is equally ready to invest their time and energy into building a real relationship.
Essentially, I'm still hoping for my last first date.
