About Us

DSCC Farms’s core mission is to create sustainable communities based on tropical horticultural produce. We seek to leverage the commercial, industrial, and medicinal uses of our plants as a means of economic and personal development for our members and partner communities. Our farm leverages modern technologies and time-proven agricultural practices to consistently produce high quality crops. We are a network of farms located in Portland, Jamaica and Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Chief Technology & Recreation Officer

I’m an engineer with 18 years experience applying Systems Control principles to a broad cross-section of industries and systems: Bauxite-Alumina Refining; Ethanol Refining; Commodity Trading; Agri-food Processing (oilseeds, vegetable oil, tomato, seaweed); and Biological Calcium and Phosphate control. DSCC Farms is my avenue and playground for innovating at the nexus of Agriculture, Systems Control, Sustainability, Entrepreneurship, Food, Medicine, Community, Language & Culture, and Recreation.

I speak Jamaican Creole, English, Portuguese and a little Spanish. I’m an avid traveler and I have an affinity for the ocean.
