I am a third-year Mathematics and Computer Science student at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT), passionate about using technology to solve real-world problems in underserved communities. Growing up in rural Kenya, I witnessed firsthand the challenges that farmers and students face—from market access issues to limited health awareness. These experiences fueled my desire to build digital solutions with deep local impact. As a co-founder of ShambaShare, a digital marketplace that connects rural farmers directly with buyers, and a lead organizer of Sugar Daddy Awareness school programs tackling transactional sex and teen pregnancy, I’m committed to socially impactful innovation. My strengths lie in team leadership, grassroots strategy, and working closely with community institutions to deliver scalable, sustainable solutions. Through the Savvy Fellowship, I hope to sharpen my entrepreneurial skills, learn from global changemakers, and access mentorship that can help me build ventures that not only thrive but transform lives. I believe in action-oriented leadership and creating platforms that uplift others—especially those who are often overlooked.
