About Rayhab Gachango

An award-winning writer with more than 10years+ experience in content creation, community engagement and online brand management. Driven by my passion for telling African stories, I founded and run the award-winning lifestyle and storytelling platform; https://www.potentash.com/. The platform has since become one of the most popular lifestyle blogs in Kenya with more than 10 million views in the last decade. It’s through my commitment to publishing high-quality content and superior online audience engagement that the blog was awarded ‘’Best Lifestyle Blog’’ in 2017 and 2018 at the Bloggers Association of Kenya Awards. It was also nominated in 2016 and 2019.As a result of my strong writing skills and public relations skills, I’ve gotten opportunities to be published in 2 anthologies, written a story for The Daily Nation as well as co-authored a content creators manual for KICTAnet. I am an employment creator at Potentash and I currently lead a team of 4 writers. As a way to give back to the community, I am a certified trainer who trains individuals to become better content creators. Prior to my blogging career, I have 5years+ of sales and promotions experience in the FMCG industry having worked in the Marketing department at Mastermind Tobacco Kenya. I have also worked as a Communications Executive for a Kenyan travel and tours company Uniglobe Northline Travel.
