Strategic Communications Specialist | Advocacy, Policy Influence, and Narrative Strategy

Results-driven communications professional with a strong track record in advocacy, stakeholder engagement, and strategic messaging. Experienced in designing and leading communications initiatives that elevate critical social justice issues, shift public discourse, and influence institutional decisions. Skilled in content development, digital storytelling, and multi-channel campaigns aimed at maximizing impact and driving positive change.

Notably led communications for the #StopChebochok campaign, coordinating with grassroots advocates and civil society actors. The campaign contributed to a landmark decision by the Kenyan government to nullify the KTDA directorship of a candidate facing credible sexual violence allegations, how well-executed messaging and coalition-building can deliver measurable policy outcomes.

I am looking for opportunities to apply strategic communications to high-impact, justice-oriented initiatives, especially those focused on human rights, civic space, gender equity, and governance across Africa and globally. I'm particularly drawn to roles or collaborations where storytelling, policy advocacy, and stakeholder engagement are used as levers for systemic change. I'm also open to supporting organizations in refining their narrative strategy, building coalitions, or launching campaigns that can influence public opinion and decision-makers.

Reach out to me if you have questions about strategic communications for advocacy, campaign design, media engagement in the African context, or how to craft compelling narratives that influence policy and public discourse. I’m also happy to share insights on stakeholder engagement, crisis communication, brand positioning for nonprofits, and fundraising strategies, including donor communications, proposal writing, and campaign messaging.
