Friendships with fellow students of Jamaican heritage in high school ultimately led Oliver to visit the island, where he established a recording studio in a Kingston suburb in partnership with a local artist. Frequent trips to Spain and other destinations throughout his youth gave Oliver a global perspective on life and an unquenchable thirst for experiencing new places and cultures. <p/>Later, a masters program in journalism at Columbia University took Oliver back to Jamaica with a film crew to shoot <i>Coping with Babylon</i>, a chronicle of contemporary Rastafarian philosophy that has appeared in international film festivals around the world and as part of an exhibition at the Smithsonian titled Discovering Rastafari. <p/>Oliver has worked as a video editor, ornithologist, and financial writer, and currently works as a correspondent for <i>mergermarket</i>, a Financial Times Group publication, in Latin America. <p/>For more information on Oliver's film production company, check out Sonerito.com.<br>
