Born in 1967 in Charlestown this accomplished scholar has chosen to take the ultimate step in service to his country. A passionate debater throughout his student years, Robelto has prepared himself for Cabinet by first pursuing careers in Agriculture as a Crop Protection Specialist and then by entering the legal profession. Before being elected to representative politics in the Nevis Local Elections on July 10, 2006, Robelto Hector operated his own law firm Hector and Associates in Charlestown.
In his spare time Robelto enjoys playing tape ball cricket with the guys at Bucco Park on Government Road, mixing and mingling with his constituents and fishing.
