I am a member of East Africa Communication Association (EACA).

I began my career in journalism as a news correspondent for Daily Nation, a sub editor with the Kenya Times Media Trust, news reporter, Bureau Chief for North Rift (Eldoret Bureau), a Business Editor, Education Editor, Supplements Editor, Business Projects Editor and a Chief Sub Editor before resigning in 2010 to teach journalism in universities. I have taught at Presbyterian University of East Africa as a full time faculty before joining Daystar. I have taught as an adjunct lecturer at MMU, KEMU, Maasai Mara universities and Kenya Institute of mass Communication before joining Daystar.
