What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a full-time, on-site role in Nairobi where I can combine communications, customer engagement, stakeholder management, and growing data analytics skills, ideally within financial services and work that transforms lives across East Africa.

At Orem Chemicals and Agricultural Company, I coordinate brand representation at agricultural exhibitions, create stakeholder communications, and turn field insights into stronger marketing strategies. Previously, at Women on Boards Network Kenya, I helped grow social media followers by 15%, engagement by 20%, and media coverage by 10%.

I've also led event campaigns that increased attendance by 20% at Project Digital Impact Foundation, managed client relationships as a freelance consultant, and produced analytics reports using Excel and Google Sheets. I'm building my data analytics capability through Excel training and SQL coursework while bringing a strong foundation in communications, public relations, customer engagement, and stakeholder management.
