I am a vibrant professional with a keen interest in sustainability within construction spaces and women in leadership in STEM. I have 15+ years as an experienced and registered architect and senior project manager with demonstrated history working in mission critical infrastructure, building, construction & renewable energy industries. I am an avid built environment sustainability enthusiast with particular interest in the use of digital technology.
In the last 3+ years, I have ventured into delivering Tier III standards purpose-built data centre facilities that are resilient and carrier-neutral in East Africa: an assignment as the Senior Project Manager (EA) at Africa Data Centres. . My mission: to have these designed, built and operating to the highest standards, to provide businesses across Africa with peace-of-mind, irrespective of the scale of their requirement.
Work-Life Integration:
Not one to shy away from a good challenge, and to maintain a healthy balance in life, I enjoy the outdoors, and a good bike ride or CrossFit session are welcome. I’m a mental health champion and keen to push for non-toxic cultures within work environments, emphasizing diversity, inclusion and innovation.
