Bio

Growing up, schooling, and working in several countries have skilled me in English and Swahili languages, elevating them to levels of "native" to me.

Extensive work in broadcast journalism and Education delivery necessitated the employment of these languages on a daily basis, both casually and professionally. 

A Masters degree in Communication Practice earned in-residence from the University of Wales, whilst stationed at Oxford, UK. 

The Tanzanian landscape affords me continual opportunity to grow with Swahili as it gains ground in world lingua.
