What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply litigation, research, and policy skills to advance inclusive governance and access to justice, with opportunities for professional growth.

I am a motivated legal professional with a Postgraduate Diploma from the Kenya School of Law and a Bachelor of Laws from Kisii University, experienced in litigation, legal research, drafting, and policy analysis. I have provided advisory support across corporate, commercial and civil matters, overseen junior staff, and contributed to digital governance and access to justice initiatives.

My practical experience includes pupillage and associate roles at Nakuru and Kisii firms, judicial attachment, and clinical externship where I handled pleadings, case management, court proceedings, and stakeholder engagement. I am passionate about leveraging digital transformation to promote inclusive governance, access to justice, and sustainable development.
