About
I am a graduate from the University of Nairobi, class of 2016. I was awarded Second class, Upper division honours in Psychology and Environmental Studies. During and after campus I ventured into business that mainly dealt with importation of beauty products from China and the United States of America, to Kenya.
I later sought formal employment in a floriculture export company based in the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport, as an Administrative Assistant, then Personal Assistant to the Managing Director.
This year, I got employed as the Managing Supervisor at a night club near Nairobi CBD. It was a great opportunity for growth as I learnt alot especially in that kind of environment. I was in charge of the staff, so the experience boosted my leadership skills and my teamwork skills.
