About

I’m Clara Wanja, a Communication Specialist, Social Media Manager, Media Analyst, and trusted radio personality affectionately known as the “Queen of Radio.” With a magnetic on-air presence and authentic storytelling, I help brands connect with communities through compelling content, consistent brand voice, and engaging community management across radio and social platforms.

I combine creativity with data-driven strategy—growing Chuka Radio’s socials by 150%, increasing engagement by 60%, and generating 200+ qualified leads in three months through targeted campaigns. From analyzing 500+ media items daily and flagging PR risks early to producing high-performing Reels and leading digital growth for events and interior design brands, I turn audience attention into loyal followership and real inquiries.
