At the Ministry of Energy and Energy Industries, I support the Director and Energy Research and Planning Division by managing a demanding calendar, arranging travel, and keeping commitments and emerging issues on track.

I prepare briefings, country profiles, talking points, and speeches for the Minister and senior officials ahead of official overseas missions and bilateral, CARICOM, and GECF engagements. I also draft confidential correspondence and roughly 12 Cabinet Notes a year.

My Ministry work includes coordinating Standing Committee on Energy meetings and tracking leadership-meeting decisions and deliverables. I’ve also served as the focal point for the Ministry’s NDC climate-projects report and supported the Vice Chair of the Permanent Local Content Committee.

At JZ Energy Services Ltd., I worked on partnership development that generated $500,000+ USD in new business and secured relationships with Shell Trinidad, Proman, and TOFCO. I also integrated Zoho CRM and Zoho Books. At NexGen AI Solutions, I build reporting and follow-up automation tools, including a content-analysis application that cut manual review time and cost.
