Previous experience

I am a Kenyan Lawyer and Certified Professional Mediator with experience in legal, Advocacy and policy work. My professional background includes providing legal advisory services, supporting compliance with legal and regulatory frameworks, and contributing to policy and governance discussions within organizations. Through this work, I have developed a strong interest in human rights advocacy, particularly in promoting dignity, equality, and access to justice for vulnerable and marginalized communities.

Academic fields of interest:

My academic interests include international human rights law, regional human rights systems in Africa, and the intersection between health, dignity, and human rights. I am particularly interested in issues affecting vulnerable and marginalised communities, including stigma, discrimination, and access to healthcare. I am keen to explore how legal and policy frameworks can strengthen the protection of fundamental rights across Africa.
