Club career

He made his first team debut for Dagenham on 19 April 2018, scoring the second goal in a 5–3 victory away at Guiseley.[6] In February 2019, he signed a new one-year contract with the option of a further year after an impressive first half of the season.[7]

International career

He made his Guyana national football team debut on 6 June 2019 in a friendly against Bermuda, as a starter.[8] He was then selected for the country's 2019 CONCACAF Gold Cup final 23-man squad after it was whittled down from forty players.[9]
