What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow in the legal field, especially in roles that focus on human rights and compliance.

I am a highly motivated paralegal student currently pursuing a Paralegal Studies certification at the Kenya School of Law. My passion for the legal field drives me to continuously learn and seek opportunities that enhance my understanding of law. I am particularly interested in the intersection of law and human rights reporting, aiming to merge my legal knowledge with meaningful social impact.

Through my experience in the Legal Aid Program, I have provided legal assistance under the supervision of practicing lawyers, gaining practical skills in case assessment, legal research, and client advisory. My participation in moot competitions has further honed my oral advocacy and legal reasoning abilities, allowing me to present persuasive legal arguments effectively.
