What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can teach and develop curriculum, mentor students, contribute to school leadership, and continue professional growth in an inclusive, collaborative environment.

I am an enthusiastic and knowledgeable World Geography teacher with extensive experience in secondary education, school leadership, and community engagement. I hold a Bachelor of Education Arts and am pursuing a Masters in Religious Studies while maintaining active classroom and administrative roles.

My career includes classroom teaching, curriculum development, assessment design, and roles in school administration including a brief principalship and BOM teaching responsibilities. I have supported student growth through lesson planning, classroom management, and mentoring while participating in professional development and educational projects.

I have also worked in field and administrative roles with institutions such as JICA, IEBC, KNBS and the Teachers Service Commission, bringing strong organizational skills, stakeholder coordination, and a commitment to continuous improvement in teaching practice.
