About

I’m a motivated Journalism and Mass Communication student with training in broadcast media and public relations. I’ve built foundational skills in news writing, reporting, studio-based radio production, interview techniques, and media relations, always applying journalistic ethics and professional standards in my work.

Through practical projects at Kibabii University and my industrial attachment at Samaritan Radio Station, I gained experience producing radio content, supporting live studio operations, conducting field reporting and vox pops, and drafting PR materials like press releases and announcements. I also developed digital marketing and customer engagement skills through self-employment as an online sales coordinator, using WhatsApp, Instagram, and Facebook to market products and manage orders.
