About me
I am a Media and Communications Consultant and a Wikipedian based in Kenya. I joined the WIkimedia movement in 2020 and has been actively contributing on Wikipedia, Wikimedia Commons and Wikidata. I am also a member of Wikimedia Community User Group Kenya where I volunteer my skills in photography, videography and community support in organizing events/ campaigns.
In 2022, I was given a Fellowship by Code for Africa as the UNDP Wikipedian-in-residence, focusing on detecting and correcting any poor quality, misleading, toxic or potentially planted disinformation relating to the elections/Kenya’s democratic processes on Wikipedia. Away from contributing online, I support the Wikimedia User Group Kenya in media relations/social media management and events/campaign coordination.
In 2024, I was given an opportunity as the official social media manager for the user group, amplifying the community's work on social media, specifically on X. My skills are key in creating visibility of the community/ movement’s projects. This has enabled me to serve as the Communications Co-Lead for Wiki Indaba 2024 which was held in South Africa. In 2025, I was selected to be part of the Wikimania 2025 Core Organizing Team (COT) as the Communications Lead.
Contributing to various Wiki spaces is not only a way for me to share my knowledge, but also an opportunity to learn from others, build valuable connections, and expand my network. These interactions fuel my professional development and enrich my contributions to Wikipedia and its sister projects.
