Much of my career was spent honing my expertise as a corporate-commercial lawyer at Dentons' Nairobi office. This role immersed me in diverse commercial disciplines, allowing me to work on M&A, PE, and project finance transactions while providing regulatory advice to clients across various sectors. Starting as an intern, I steadily grew to become a tenured associate, supervising teams and gaining experience in all stages of the deal lifecycle.
Driven by a desire to gain a holistic understanding of business, I transitioned to management consulting at McKinsey, where I have worked for the past 1.5 years. This experience has provided valuable insights into the business side of commercial transactions, strengthening my business judgment, and ability to identify and mitigate business risks.
I obtained my Masters in Corporate Law from Harvard law School.
I also have an LL.B. from the University of Nairobi Law School.
