Bio

I am a social innovator, product designer and researcher.

I connect clinical and technical expertise in the field of global health. In my work, I aim to enable sustainable, systemic transformations in health systems focusing on patient value.


My current work focuses on digital healthcare innovations in Kenya and Tanzania. I have an academic background in healthcare management and biomedical research. I am currently developing my skills in innovative & strategic design.


I have always been curious to understand and explore the world from multiple perspectives, linking knowledge domains and connecting people.
