I am an agricultural educator, youth leader, humanitarian volunteer, and TEDxMuranga University of Technology organizer committed to empowering young people through education, innovation, and community action. My work focuses on agriculture, climate resilience, youth leadership, road safety, and social entrepreneurship. I serve as the Youth Chairperson of the Kenya Red Cross Society–Murang'a Branch, where I work with volunteers and communities to strengthen resilience, promote health, and support disaster preparedness. As the organizer of TEDxMurang'a University of Technology, I believe that powerful ideas can inspire meaningful change. I am passionate about creating platforms where innovators, researchers, entrepreneurs, and community leaders can share ideas that improve lives and shape a better future.

Young people are not just the leaders of tomorrow—they are innovators, problem-solvers, and change-makers today. When communities invest in youth leadership, education, and collaboration, they unlock solutions to challenges in food security, climate action, public health, and sustainable development. Ideas become transformative when they are shared, tested, and put into action.

TED has inspired me for years by demonstrating how one powerful idea can influence millions of people around the world. Organizing TEDxMurang'a University of Technology is an opportunity to bring that spirit to my community by creating a platform where local voices, researchers, entrepreneurs, students, and innovators can share ideas that deserve global attention. My goal is to showcase African innovation, inspire collaboration, and encourage young people to believe that their ideas can create meaningful change.

Beyond my work in agriculture and humanitarian service, I enjoy mentoring young leaders, developing community projects, writing proposals, facilitating workshops, and connecting people around a common purpose. I also enjoy turning complex challenges into practical, community-driven solutions.
