What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role where I provide legal and executive administrative support, ensure compliance, and help streamline operations while working in a collaborative, ethical environment with opportunities for professional growth.

I am an advocate of the High Court of Kenya with over five years of experience delivering high-level administrative, executive, and client support across legal and nonprofit settings. I combine a legal background with strong organizational skills to manage schedules, draft correspondence, prepare reports, and coordinate meetings while protecting confidential information.

My career highlights include serving as a Freelance Advocate and Independent Consultant, working as a Legal Compliance Officer for the National Rainbow Coalition (NARC), and supporting partners and associates as a pupil/legal assistant at a law firm. I have experience preparing compliance reports, organizing trainings, managing case files, and maintaining accurate records.

I seek roles where I can apply my compliance knowledge, administrative expertise, and client-focused approach to support senior leaders, improve office operations, and contribute to efficient, ethical legal practice.
