He received his primary education at St. Augustin Boys School in the town of Vieux Fort and, later on, his secondary education at the Vieux Fort Secondary School. In 1981, at the age of sixteen, he moved to St. Croix to join his parents. After being in the Virgin Islands for three years, he decided to move to Brooklyn, New York, where he lived for five years before moving back in 1989 and has lived there ever since.
He sees himself not so much as a product of academic learning but rather as a product of independent thinking. He believes that with classroom education, man end up knowing only what he is taught. But with independent thinking, man arrives at the platform of truth seeing and knowing what he should and eventually possessing the one possession that is truly his own—his inner self. Within these pages lie the philosophies that have shaped his way of thinking over the years.ver menos
