With 18 years of experience in PR and Communications, I’ve built a career at the intersection of public diplomacy, environmental communication, and content creation. Currently working as a Strategic Content and Coordination Specialist at the U.S. Embassy, I lead a dynamic team, producing impactful stories for the U.S Embassy and the U.S. Ambassador to Kenya. I’ve also secured over $500,000 in U.S. Government grants, enabling transformative social change initiatives in Kenya.
