1. How does it feel to have been selected for such an elite squad?

It feels well-earned and I feel that it is a great opportunity.

2. How will you prepare for the competition?

I will keep coming to training, doing fitness and working hard.

3. When did you start playing football and what prompted you to start?

I started when I was 9 years old and what prompted me was that every school break my brother was going to a different football camp and it just seemed to interest me, so, once I finally tried it, I loved it.

4. What are your plans for your time in St. Lucia besides Football?

I hope to bond with the girls and to pay attention to everything that I am told to play well.

5. Which Bermudian athlete, coach or sporting figure do you admire most and why?

David Bascome, because even though he has been through a lot of things in his past, he still motivates people to do their best and teaches people how to play better football.
