A Journey of Purpose & Service
Connecting lived experience with strategic diplomacy, community advocacy, and emergency relief.
My path is defined by a deep-seated belief that sustainable change begins on the ground. Starting in East Africa, I collaborated with REFUNITE in Nairobi, Kenya, mobilizing communities and directly assisting displaced refugee families in reconnecting with missing loved ones through innovative mobile tracing technologies.
That frontline commitment evolved into comprehensive crisis response in the United States. As a Disaster Cycle Services Intern with the American Red Cross Greater Rochester Chapter, I serve as a certified Case Maintainer and Transportation Specialist, helping families overcome the acute trauma of residential fires and natural disasters through direct client care and financial relief.
Concurrently, at the University of Rochester, my academic research in International Relations focuses on comparative governance, political institutionalism, and sustainable development. Whether negotiating resolutions as a Model United Nations delegate or directing creative vision at Simba Photography, I strive to elevate human stories with dignity and precision.
