With over 15 years of experience in finance and business, I am a strategic leader who drives growth and innovation in the financial services and hospitality industries. As the founder and MD of Upways Hotels, I oversee the operations and management of a chain of hotels that offer quality and affordable accommodation to travelers across East Africa. My core competencies include financial and enterprise risk management, business planning, banking, and marketing strategy. I leverage my skills and knowledge to provide financial and transaction advisory services to clients in various sectors, such as Dhamana Africa Ltd, where I served as the CEO and Director Strategy. I am also a strong entrepreneur who has successfully launched and grown several ventures, such as Equity Bank Group, where I was the Finance Director. I hold an MBA from the University of Wales and I am passionate about creating value and impact in the markets I serve.
