About Me

Named by Google in 2013/2014 as one of the top 20 innovators in Africa and by African Viewpoint Journal in 2015 as one of the top 20 under 35 young African changemakers, I am an award winning creative technologist . As founder and President of the award-winning project, African Queens Project which won the global award by World Summit Awards and with over six years of experience in the field of media and journalism, I am at the forefront of innovation, activism, and technology.

I speak and moderate various panels and platforms on issues surrounding technology, leadership, activism, women, and Pan-Africanism. Having grown up in places like Saudi Arabia, Northern Ireland, California, and Tanzania has given me a strong background and a wide perspective on issues both on a global front and a national front.
