Brief info
Role: I am the EdTech Hub's Communications Officer. Based in the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya. I am in charge of the "push content" - connecting the program to the public by projecting stories through the blog, newsletters, emails, social media, events, and web content.
Background: My specialty is in public relations, documentation, internal communications, and knowledge management. I have worked with non-profit organizations starting from research in education, farmer entrepreneurship and food and nutrition. My engagement has led me to shaping stories for small and medium enterprises targeting the low-income communities. I have worked with teams in Rwanda, Kenya and Mozambique, Nigeria, Tanzania, Bangladesh, India and Pakistan. I hold a Bachelor of Arts, Journalism and Media studies degree from the University of Nairobi, Kenya.
