WHAT I DO
Well behaved women seldom make history — Laurel Thatcher Ulrich.
A change maker journey that began in 2017, I work with teams to run projects in line with the UN SDGs, primarily focusing on quality education, gender equality, peace and human rights.
I am combating archaic beliefs on educational and gender equality, tackling other social issues development, leveraging on storytelling and communication to tell women's stories and amplify their voices.
I see a world where farmers daughters like ME and blacksmith sons can be equipped with all they need to achieve their dreams without hindrances.
When I'm not smashing the patriarchy, I sing, play the guitar and pen my thoughts as poetry.
