  For the last three years my research focus has been concerned with women and religious authority on my home island of Trinidad. I am currently pursuing a PhD in Cultural Studies and my work has been centered on female leaders in The Catholic Charismatic Renewal Movement. It has become quite common place to see women hold very powerful and authoritative positions in religious spaces in my region in what would be considered traditionally patriarchal institutions. Inevitably, this has created a very unique field of inquiry. I am also very much involved in the History of Caribbean Civilizations, which is what I currently lecture at the University of the West Indies. I possess a BSc. in Psychology with a Minor in History, I have also obtained a Diploma in Theology from the Inste Bible College, Iowa. These Interdisciplinary exposures have all been of great assistance in informing my research - having the ability to understand why people do the things that they do, helps in presenting realistic representations of people's lives.
