Interdisciplinary Musical Artist, Author, Painter, Human Rights Activist
Nairobi

Summary

I am an entrepreneurial and creative director and founder who is passionate about turning innovative ideas into tangible, lifechanging results. Through the hands-on experience that I have garnered over the years, I have become adept at working under pressure, being a team player and trendsetter, formulating and executing strategic plans, creating new products and services, and developing business opportunities for myself and for those who work with me.

As an African woman in the arts and as a feminist, I have a proven track record of multiple successful ventures and I have led other musical and artistic professionals towards the successful completion of many projects.

I am a pragmatic professional with solid experience in leadership roles; slow to anger, quick to give space and grace while still maintaining the firmness that is necessary towards achieving individual and group goals. I consider myself a top-notch music creative with a proven track record of success in leading and growing organizations; starting with the Green House Movement, AMG and my food franchise MLO Africa.

At the height of the pandemic the Green House Movement was born. The Green House Movement is a collective of artistes, musicians, teachers and students and it is a CBO based in Wangige, Kiambu County. Even those GHM is relatively new, we managed to organize a live extravaganza at Kitisuru Manor; one which featured live performances and an artist exhibition which ran from August to November 2021.

The Green House band is also part of this movement and we perform under this banner from time to time.
