What I'm looking for

I want to become a respected health and development writer and researcher, turning evidence into stories that move readers to act and building toward research and advocacy work with international health and poverty-reduction organisations.

At Mama Lucy Kibaki Hospital and Mbagathi Level 5 Hospital, I researched medical conditions and wrote structured case studies, organising evidence into clear analysis and recommendations. I also translated clinical information into plain-language patient education and exercise guidance.

Through Pinterest and affiliate marketing, I launched and manage a business account in the lifestyle and wellness niche, creating original content. I also set up Amazon Associates affiliate content to attract online readers.

At Global Give Back Circle, Neema Mercy Children's Home, and Enkare Oltau, I supported community work, led a Grade 10 induction session, and offered practical skills training to teen mothers. These experiences deepened my interest in global health, poverty reduction, and girls' empowerment.
