Faith and Experience brought me here
After over 30 years in public service, international development, and Christian leadership across Africa, I’ve stepped into a new chapter of life. While I may have slowed my pace, my sense of purpose has only deepened.
I’ve had the privilege of leading institutions, shaping policy, and facilitating transformation at local, national, and continental levels. I’ve worked with grassroots communities and government leaders alike, engaging in systems reform, strategy, and ministry. My journey has taken me across three continents, through bilateral and multilateral partnerships, and into spaces where faith and public life intersect.
My Faith
Through it all, my faith was never an afterthought—it was the foundation. It shaped my work ethic, sharpened my leadership, and anchored my convictions in moments of both triumph and testing.
Now, I write.
I write to reflect on lessons from the field and the quiet ways God has led me over the years.
I write to share insights from my journey—failures, prayers, breakthroughs, and lessons still unfolding.
And I write to inspire a generation that must reclaim integrity, rebuild broken systems, and live with conviction and hope.
This website is not a megaphone—it’s a table. A place to pause, wrestle with big questions, and engage in honest dialogue about governance, discipleship, nationhood, justice, and the stewardship of influence.
If that resonates with you, I invite you to journey with me—read, reflect, question, comment, and share.
May these writings help you see more clearly, live more courageously, and lead more faithfully.
