About

I am a community-focused educator and social impact practitioner working at the intersection of education, research, and grassroots innovation in Zambia. Through my work with the Free Haven Community Initiative, I design and implement programs that support vulnerable communities through education, health, and youth empowerment. I have contributed to the Home to School Project, where I explored how home environments, language, and nutrition shape learning outcomes, and I have also engaged with Bitcoin Victoria Falls to promote financial inclusion through community-based Bitcoin education. Across these roles, I apply human-centered design to develop practical, locally relevant solutions that address barriers to learning and opportunity. I am building toward a sustainable ecosystem where learners especially in rural areas value education because it is clearly connected to their lives and future pathways. My focus is on integrating mentorship, career exposure, and real-world skills into the learning experience to strengthen motivation, retention, and self-agency among young people.
