What I'm looking for

I seek event-focused roles where I can engage guests, raise brand awareness, and grow into event coordination with supportive teams and clear advancement.

I am an energetic events and customer-service professional with hands-on experience as an event hostess, expo booth assistant, and brand ambassador across conferences, expos, and activation events in Nairobi. I consistently deliver welcoming guest experiences, represent brands professionally, and support operations from registration to on-site problem resolution.

My background includes a Bachelor in Public Policy and Administration and practical attachment experience at a teaching and referral hospital where I prepared reports, managed communications, and supported administrative workflows. I bring strong communication, time management, adaptability, and teamwork skills to roles that require client engagement and operational reliability.
