What I'm looking for

I'm seeking opportunities in legal research, legal assistance, litigation support, or legal officer roles with Kenyan law firms, NGOs, and legal organisations, particularly where I can contribute to family law, children's rights, and access to justice.

Legal Professional with 3+ years of experience in contract drafting, legal research, litigation support, corporate governance, and executive assistance. I hold a Bachelor of Laws (LLB) from Mount Kenya University and am currently completing the Advocates Training Programme at Kenya School of Law.

I completed pupillage at Ngata Kamau & Co. Advocates, a busy litigation firm in Nairobi, where I independently drafted court documents for High Court and Court of Appeal matters, conducted legal research on commercial disputes, managed the firm's court diary, and handled client interviews. I also integrated AI tools (ChatGPT Plus, Claude Pro, Copilot) into legal research workflows to improve turnaround time.

Previously, I served as Legal Support Specialist and Executive Assistant to the CEO at Bob Digital Media Ltd for over two years. I drafted and negotiated commercial contracts including a high-value cross-border partnership agreement between a Healthcare Foundation and Bob Digital Media Ltd. I managed the CEO's calendar across multiple time zones, triaged 80+ daily emails, maintained HubSpot CRM for 50+ client accounts, and built an Excel-based contract tracking system managing 100+ contracts with automated alerts.

I'm bilingual in English and Swahili with legal translation and interpretation capability. I'm a member of FIDA-Kenya and passionate about family law, children's rights, and access to justice.

I'm seeking remote opportunities in legal research, litigation support, contract management, corporate governance, legal assistance, virtual legal support, or executive/virtual assistant roles. I thrive in fast-paced, cross-border environments and bring strong attention to detail, reliability, and a zero-missed-deadlines track record.
