The Office of the Deputy Governor is delighted to announce the appointment of Ms Olimeisha Williams as Budget Analyst in the Budget Office within the Ministry of Finance, Trade, and Investment.
Ms Williams graduated Summa Cum Laude from Florida International University in 2024, earning her Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in International Business. Her exemplary academic performance led to her induction into the FIU Business Dean’s High Achievers Society, a recognition of her commitment and excellence in her field. Prior to her studies at FIU, Ms. Williams completed an Associate Degree in Business Administration from the Turks and Caicos Islands Community College in 2021.
In terms of practical experience, Ms Williams served as a Finance Intern with the Turks and Caicos Islands National Insurance Board (NIB) during the summers of 2023 and 2024 through the Turks and Caicos Islands Internship and Apprenticeship Program, where she honed her skills in financial reporting, budgeting, and data analysis.

This appointment marks a significant milestone in my professional journey, and I look forward to applying my skills and knowledge to support effective budgetary policies and financial strategies that promote economic growth and stability in the Turks and Caicos Islands. As Nelson Mandela once said, ‘Everyone can rise above their circumstances and achieve success if they are dedicated to and passionate about what they do.’ This quote resonates deeply with me because dedication and passion have been the driving forces behind my academic and professional journey. I am truly honoured to have been entrusted with this responsibility and am committed to making a meaningful contribution to the financial governance of my country.
I embrace this new chapter with enthusiasm and determination, excited for the opportunities that lie ahead. I thank God for allowing me to apply myself in a role that aligns with my passions and aspirations. His guidance has been instrumental in my journey, and I am beyond grateful for His blessings. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to my parents, family, and mentors, whose unwavering support, encouragement, and belief in me have helped me reach this milestone. Their guidance has played a crucial role in my personal and professional growth.”
