What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead purpose-driven digital communication that builds compelling narratives, strengthens advocacy, and delivers measurable social impact—especially in public health and youth-centered ecosystems—while challenging the status quo.

I’m a purpose-driven communications professional with a background in development studies and a passion for digital media. Over the past decade, I’ve helped organizations develop and implement innovative communication strategies, amplify campaigns, and create narratives that drive social change.

As a Digital Communication Lead, I bring people together to learn the power of narrative and communication, then turn knowledge into collective strategic comms actions that advance sexual health and reproductive rights in Kenya. I also use my expertise to challenge the status quo by designing new futures through effective communication and strategic advocacy.

In senior communications roles across youth-centered and public-health focused organizations, I’ve supported evidence-based rights information, streamlined digital health and innovation efforts to avoid duplication, and strengthened online engagement through media engagement, digital campaigns, and content management. I combine creative and innovative thinking with strategic and critical thinking, relationship management, and complex problem solving—backed by masters and bachelor degrees in communication and media technology, plus digital marketing and content marketing training.
