Co-Founder & Architectural Lead, African Art Agenda
About

I am an architectural designer and researcher who treats African space, building cultures, and craft as forms of knowledge, technology, and memory. Based in Nairobi, Kenya, my practice spans architectural design, exhibition curation, spatial research, and public programming, with a focused interest in systems change, digital tools, and inclusive innovation in African cities.

I am currently Co-Founder and Architectural Lead of African Art Agenda, a female-led, multidisciplinary arts organisation based in Nairobi.
