What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role where I can apply hands-on mechanical engineering and training experience, build industry partnerships, improve production and maintenance processes, and mentor trainees in a growth-oriented, collaborative organization.

I am a mechanical engineer with over four years of hands-on production experience and five years as a technical trainer, committed to delivering practical engineering solutions and high-quality instruction.

At Nyakach Technical Training College I served as Head of Industrial Liaison and Head of Career Services, building industry partnerships and implementing dual-training initiatives that connected learners to on-the-job experience.

Previously, as a Sales Engineer at Twyford Ceramics Ltd I led the press machine department, managed machine maintenance schedules, supported refrigeration systems, performed quality assessments, and contributed to sales strategy and online product marketing.

I combine technical competencies—AutoCAD/Inventor, production planning, ISO/Kaizen familiarity, data analysis—with training skills and a focus on workplace health and safety to drive operational improvements and develop future technicians.
