What I'm looking for

I am seeking entry-level positions positions where I can expand beyond the skills learnt during my internships and contribute meaningfully to a team.

I am a soon-to-be Bachelor of Media Studies graduate from the University of Botswana focused on digital communication, policy, and project management. I bring strong analytical strategy development, creative content creation, and effective communication skills.

I have led and contributed to campaigns that advanced civic participation, anti-corruption advocacy, and sexual and reproductive health education while aligning messaging with social impact and sustainability goals.

My professional experience spans roles in communications, public relations, social media management, and program representation, including internships and ambassadorial work that strengthened stakeholder engagement and outreach.

I am a proactive leader and founder with practical experience in project planning, operational management, and partnership development; I seek opportunities to apply my skills to drive measurable impact and organizational growth.
