Dedicated International Relations professional with expertise in diplomatic affairs and humanitarian

Kenya

What I'm looking for

Seeking a role in international relations, diplomatic affairs, or project coordination that offers opportunities for professional growth and impactful community engagement.

I am a passionate International Relations professional with hands-on experience in diplomatic affairs and humanitarian work. My journey began with an internship at the Kenya Red Cross, where I implemented community outreach programs focusing on disaster preparedness and emergency response. I conducted needs assessments, delivered targeted support to vulnerable communities, and facilitated training sessions for volunteers and community members.

My subsequent internship at the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs further honed my skills in stakeholder communication, diplomatic protocol, and project coordination. I managed stakeholder communications, coordinated high-level meetings, and processed diplomatic correspondence with strict attention to detail. I also utilized tools like Piktochart to design visually engaging presentations, enhancing communication effectiveness in diplomatic discussions.

I hold a Diploma in International Relations and Diplomacy from Riara University and am currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in the same field. My technical proficiencies include Microsoft Office Suite, Virtual Communication Platforms, and Adobe Creative Suite. I am fluent in English and Swahili, with basic proficiency in French, enabling me to navigate cross-cultural communications effectively.
