About

I am a multi-faceted multi skilled Kenyan designer with 15 years experience in brand identity design and experiential event design. I'm pursuing studies in industrial design because I love to make and want to start manufacturing lifestyle goods locally. My personal maxim is use what you have which drives my creativity to make my design solutions elegant yet simple.
