What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role in events or production where I can lead teams, manage logistics and technical delivery, drive guest engagement, and grow professionally within a collaborative, fast-paced environment.

I am an events and production professional with hands-on experience managing activities, facilities, and technical production across hospitality and music industries in Kenya. I have led teams, coordinated logistics, overseen pre- and post-production workflows, and improved production quality through talent scouting and process management.

I deliver engaging guest experiences that drive social engagement and partnerships, manage inventory and scheduling effectively, and provide technical support for live events. I am organized, adaptable, and committed to continuous improvement and collaborative problem-solving.
