🇯🇲 Farewell to Ambassador of Jamaica, Audrey Marks

A Legacy of Leadership, Diplomacy, and National Pride. 🇯🇲

Last month, on March 28, 2025, we bid a heartfelt farewell to Ambassador Audrey Marks, who completed her tenure as Jamaica’s Ambassador to the United States, having served two historic terms — first from 2010 to 2012, and again from 2016 to 2024.

Ambassador Marks made history as the first woman to hold this esteemed diplomatic post and remains the only ambassador to serve two non-consecutive terms in Washington, D.C.

During her time in office, she was a tireless advocate for the Jamaican diaspora and a key voice in advancing trade, tourism, cultural diplomacy, and economic partnerships between Jamaica and the U.S.

From her leadership during the COVID-19 pandemic to her bold representation of Caribbean interests on the global stage, Ambassador Marks has left a lasting impact on bilateral relations and inspired a new generation of women leaders in diplomacy.

We thank Ambassador Marks for her outstanding service and wish her continued success in all future endeavors.

Walk good, Ambassador. 🇯🇲
