I’m a Public Relations professional with a strong background in media relations and digital marketing. I craft compelling narratives, manage media outreach, and build relationships with journalists and influencers to drive positive coverage and stronger brand visibility.

In my recent role at Kenakor Media (July 2020 – June 2025), I researched and developed high-quality content for multiple media and platforms, conducted interviews with subject matter experts and industry professionals, and ensured every piece was edited and proofread for accuracy, clarity, and tone. I also used social analytics tools and applied structured task prioritization and team collaboration to keep campaigns moving with purpose.

Earlier, at Harare City Council (January 2017 – June 2020), I handled public-facing communications by facilitating inquiries from media outlets, verifying the legitimacy of sources, and writing information-rich content for promotional offers and campaigns. I also supported crisis communication by creating factually correct, professionally written responses to protect organizational integrity, prevent loss, and save up—while managing communications department expenditure and ensuring campaigns stayed within budget.
