About Me:
I'm a young woman aged 26. i hail from the marginalised pastoralist pokot community of northern kenya. This is an area where the voices of women are least heard.Most women are silent sufferers of a community that has a lot of human rights violation to the women. I'm a women and child rights activist who subscribes to the ideals of empowering women and living in a society where every member of the society is respected.
i work with youths in northern kenya to champion for the general welfare of the people of northern kenya and to create positive change in the community for the now and future generations.
i need networks and opportunites to netwoork me to other like minded women so that we can change the through our voices.
My Passions:

My Vision for the Future:
To provide change in the society.
