The Pinnacle will be Jamaica's architectural luxury real estate marvel. It will boast the four tallest buildings not only in Jamaica but in the Caribbean standing tall with four 28 story towers. I had the chance to speak with both the sales and marketing leader, Dominique Silvera, and the lead architect on the project, Isiah Madden. Their stories on joining the project are incredible and they are ultimately the right people for the job. One of the unique aspects of The Pinnacle is the leadership team. It is an all female all Jamaican leadership team. In this interview I explore this in detail. I also had a chance to meet the CEO of The Pinnacle, Yangsen Li, who joined us on the site tour.

Misti Memphis has been living in Jamaica for the past 13 years. She is originally from Memphis, Tennessee. From the first time she ever visited Jamaica, she knew she would eventually call this place her home. This is Misti's second time on the podcast. She was kind enough to not only share her story of how she came to call Jamaica her home but also updated us on the newest things happening in her life as a Negril social media community leader. Misti also recently received her Jamaican citizenship, which she is really proud of. In this podcast, she also gives great insight into her Negril lifestyle, the process of attaining permanent residency, as well as her view and experiences on crime in Jamaica compared to that of the US.
