About Me

I am a professional freelance writer who is passionate about bringing quality and relevance content to my audience of readers. I strive to provide factual information that is insightful and highlights new angles on a traditional subject matter.

I hold degrees in Business Administration and Information Technology from Northern Caribbean University and am a Microsoft Certified Professional. I have used my professional training to develop successful trading strategies to day trade the financial markets, in which I have over 7 years experience trading commodities, derivatives, equities and the forex markets.

To this end I have also written programs to automate the trading process, by coding Meta Trader expert advisors to identify ideal trading opportunities and send trade alerts by email. I am passionately about sharing what I know and for this I draw on my writing skills.

I have edited one published book and also write for Constant-content and Suite101, where I have sold and published works.

I also run my own websites:

BestAndroidAppsFor.com

BlackHair101.com

AndroidCellPhoneTracker.com


My Awards & Certifications

BSc Business Administration (1995) - Northern Caribbean University

BSc. in Information Technology (2003) - Northern Caribbean University

Microsoft Certified Professional (2003)

I have also done several Cisco networking courses.
