You're here because something isn't running the way it should. A project is late. Client messages are piling up in your inbox, all asking for the same update. Your team is busy, but nothing's actually moving. Let me fix that for you. I will come in, learn your world fast, and become the one person holding the whole thing together, from the first conversation with a client through to delivery. I've run projects across tech, marketing, and construction, using ClickUp, Asana, Slack, and Jira including one build where I led a team of 12 developers to ship 3 weeks ahead of schedule and 8% under budget. The industries may have been different, but the job was always the same: bring order to projects and get it shipped. What you get when you work with me: → Project workflows your team will actually follow → Full cycle team and client management → Time back to run your business instead of firefighting it → A project that actually ships on time → A client who feels looked after I'm not here to manage your to-do list. I'm here to make your business run the way you meant it to when you started it. If that's what you need, I'm one message away.

If your project has too many moving parts, too many stakeholders, and not enough hours in the day — I am the person who makes sure nothing falls through. 6 years. 18 programme sites. 6 counties. 10,000+ participants. That is what coordinating the Ajira Digital Programme across Kenya looked like in practice — maintaining workplans and task trackers across multiple workstreams simultaneously, managing donor reporting for the Kenya ICT Authority and international development partners, coordinating events and workshops end-to-end, and keeping a complex multi-stakeholder network aligned and moving. What I do for clients on Upwork: ▸ Project coordination — workplans, milestone tracking, risk registers, action logs ▸ Stakeholder management — partner correspondence, meeting minutes, governance support ▸ M&E and reporting — donor reports, dashboards, impact summaries, briefing notes ▸ Event and logistics coordination — workshops, webinars, travel, materials ▸ Research and synthesis — AI-assisted analysis, structured summaries, executive presentations ▸ Documentation — filing systems, version control, knowledge management I work across development, NGO, foundation, and private sector environments. I am based in Nairobi (EAT / UTC+3), fully remote-capable, and responsive within the same business day. Send me a message — I'll tell you within 24 hours whether I'm the right fit.

Are you wanting to save time by having somebody else assist you with your day to day tasks or even manage your social media accounts? Well, look no further because that’s where I come in, not just to take tasks off your plate, but to give you the peace of mind that things are being handled with care and attention to detail, even in your absence. In the last 5+ years, I’ve had the privilege to work as both a Virtual Assistant and a Social Media Manager, helping busy entrepreneurs, small business owners, CEOs, founders, consultants, coaches, and executives save time, stay organized, and actually enjoy their work again. As a Virtual Assistant, I support my clients with the behind-the-scenes essentials that keep a business running smoothly. Whether that’s managing inboxes, coordinating calendars, preparing documents, organizing workflows, or handling research. My goal is always to create systems that make your day-to-day life easier, so you can focus on the parts of your life and business you truly love. On the Social Media side, I bring creativity and strategy together to help my clients show up online in a way that feels authentic and sustainable. I’ve spent years learning what works across various platforms like Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube while crafting content that resonates, building real communities, and focusing on organic growth rather than quick, short-lived wins. From planning and creating posts to managing accounts and tracking engagement, I take care of the details so you can connect with your audience and grow your brand with confidence. At the heart of what I do is a simple belief that, when you have the right support, you can achieve more without burning out. My clients know me for being reliable, positive, organized, flexible, communicates effectively, and someone they can trust to treat their business like my own. So if you’re ready to breathe a little easier and have someone in your corner, let’s jump into a FREE call. I’d love to hear about your goals and how I can help you achieve them.
