I help leaders and organizations strengthen their leadership, work better together, and increase their impact. Good leadership is not just about individual skills. It is also about the relationships, culture, and systems that help people do their best work.

In 2023, I launched my leadership development consultancy, drawing on my background in social innovation, public health, and organizational development. Before that, I led RNW Media’s Love Matters Africa, developing creative ways to engage young audiences on sexual and reproductive health and rights. I later joined the Amani Institute’s Global Team, where I had previously studied social innovation management. I started as Monitoring and Evaluation Manager before becoming Global Program Director, leading leadership and innovation projects across the world.

My approach combines evidence, curiosity, and practical experience. I believe the best solutions come from understanding people and their context, asking the right questions, and working together to find a way forward. I bring a systems perspective to my work, looking beyond individual behaviors to the relationships, culture, and structures that shape how people work together. My aim is always to make the complex feel manageable and turn insights into meaningful action.

I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy, a Master’s in Public Health, and a PhD in Public Health and Family Medicine from the University of Cape Town.

I live on the Kenyan island of Lamu, with my partner, two dogs and a donkey.
