studying for exams while on a work trip in the Caribbean, Eva has
always found a way to make it work.

brands, having an engaged community, and being a trusted
source
for information on the Caribbean, blogging,
parenting, and education. Since 2011, she has written about
Caribbean
American parenting, working on campaigns for
companies such as Wal-Mart, AT&T, and Beaches Resorts. She won

and she is a SheKnows/BlogHer Voices of the Year Honoree and

judge for the awards.
As the founder of the SocaMom® Summit, Eva brought
together more than 70 speakers representing over 20
countries, at the height of the coronavirus
pandemic to discuss issues that are important to the Caribbean
diaspora. The event, held virtually in April and June of 2020,
collectively provided the community with over 50 sessions totaling
more than 30 hours of discussions, teaching, and entertainment for
both children and adults.
