Becoming a Trusted Voice

My career began over 8 years ago in television, at a real estate-focused show. Thereafter, I wrote extensively for mainstream media outlets, including, Daily Nation, where my features shaped national conversations on everything from construction policy, material science and innovation, to affordable housing, market trends, inclusive building designs and more. Two years ago I began expanding my reach to digital audiences.

My work has always been driven by a core belief: that property affects each one of us on different levels, therefore knowledge on these topics should be accessible and empowering.

I’ve had the privilege of interviewing leading experts, including material researchers, property advocates, leading developers, proptech innovators, contractors, architects, and land rights activists among others across the African continent. I’m keen on sharing this acquired knowledge with broad audiences.

In 2025, I served on the inaugural Top Property Awards, judging panel an initiative by Nation Media Group that brought together industry leaders, developers, policy experts and construction stakeholders to honor excellence and innovation in Kenya’s property sector. My participation added a layer of professional expertise and industry knowledge to the awards process, and further cemented my profile as a respected figure in built-environment discourse.

A Digital Media Leader in Property Conversations

Beyond traditional media, I have actively used digital platforms — particularly Instagram and TikTok , to drive accessible, nuanced conversations around construction, land governance, and real estate. The goals is to help demystify complex industry topics for broader audiences, bridging the gap between professionals, policymakers, and everyday citizens.

My role in the Property industry continues to evolve as I explore diverse and modern ways to share knowledge, empower curious audiences and contribute to industry growth.
