@shawnpaul
Motivated undergraduate bridging analytical chemistry and creative leadership to drive disciplined, high-impact projects.
What I'm looking for
I’m a motivated and disciplined undergraduate with a strong foundation in chemistry and proven leadership experience as a class representative and award-winning creative director. I bring the ability to work collaboratively, manage projects under pressure, and communicate complex ideas clearly—sharpened through both scientific and artistic roles.
At Taifa Vision Arts Production, I progressed from lead actor to Executive Team Lead & Theatrical Actor, overseeing a creative team of 14. I planned, coordinated, and executed stage productions across Kenya, supervising daily rehearsals, managing performance schedules, and leading logistics planning for over 25 major school shows under strict timelines.
I also support student outreach through my voluntary work with the Dedan Kimathi University Marketing Department, assisting with open-day logistics and campaign promotion while building digital literacy using Microsoft Office tools and Canva. I’m passionate about applying analytical thinking and teamwork in a lab setting to contribute meaningfully to research and innovation.
