Founder & Editor
I created Cocoa & Coconut to build the kind of Caribbean publication I longed to see — thoughtful, beautiful, culturally rooted and expansive.
Through journalism, storytelling and community, I want this space to honour Caribbean women and the stories too often overlooked.
Favourite island indulgence I could have forever?
Saltfish and johnny cakes… without question.
