As a seasoned multimedia producer and communications strategist with over a decade of experience in the creative industry, I possess a data-driven and innovative approach to strategy development and implementation. My expertise lies in the media, communications, and marketing sectors, specifically in youth engagement. I have extensive experience strategizing and executing communications campaigns in East Africa, focusing on education, health, financial fitness, entrepreneurship, governance, advocacy, and participation.I am passionate about using impactful communications to create meaningful change and build agency. I define agency as being mindful of one's physical, mental, and natural assets, such as health, ideas, time, talents, and skills, and using them to influence thoughts and behaviors to improve lives. In addition, my personal belief in continuous learning and self-improvement drives my professional pursuits.I gained notoriety in the media industry as a youth TV personality in 2009, leveraging my knowledge of both academic and non-academic realms to creatively and confidently influence decisions through media. However, I do not take this success for granted. I come from a community with few opportunities and understand an agency's power and the ability to change one's circumstances.Currently, my mission is focused on empowering the youth of Africa to use their skills, knowledge, talents, and ideas to drive positive change in their communities. To achieve this, I work with like-minded organizations to establish and support ecosystems that provide young people with the resources they need to create solutions. I also mentor and train them in media, communications, and marketing.My specialties include media, communications, marketing, youth engagement, hospitality, and entertainment. In addition, my skills include storytelling with impact, strategy design, media campaign management, user-centered design (UX/UI), innovation, content creation, leadership, MEL, coaching, mentoring, PR, program/project management, product/brand development, and client/partner relationship management.
