Bio
I am an East African passionate about news and interested in leveraging my gifts to report and tell stories in audio, text and video formats, and while I am extremely passionate about story telling and communication, I thrive in framing stories with social, political and economic contexts. I am also well acquainted with nuances of content, taste and consumption in East Africa and have working experience in serving audience in Kenya and Tanzania. 
I am an experienced Swahili Translator and have worked with TRT WORLD headquartered in Istanbul Turkey as Swahili Specialist as well as a Swahili news anchor and reporter at Royal Media Services in Nairobi Kenya.
