International MC and Award Winning Keynote Speaker

As a keynote speaker, my focus areas are deeply rooted in both lived experience and academic grounding. I’ve had the privilege of working at the intersection of youth empowerment, gender equity, and social transformation. My academic journey—including a Master’s in Strategic Business Management and ongoing PhD research in Corporate Sustainability—has further shaped my understanding of systems thinking, effective storytelling, and impact-driven leadership. These topics are not just areas of study or work—they are personal missions. This, all rooted in Pan Africanism means that every keynote I deliver is a commitment to empowering voices that often go unheard.
