Speaker addressing an audience

Speaker

My speaking engagements are rooted in lived and professional experience, scholarly insight, and a passion for reshaping narratives that matter.

I speak to challenge assumptions, provoke thought, and inspire action — offering audiences both bold truths and practical pathways forward.

Speaking Themes

Early Childhood Development

I speak about the foundations of human potential — how the earliest years shape futures, and why investing in children, especially orphans and vulnerable children, isn’t charity, it’s strategy.

Women and Girls’ Rights

From classrooms to boardrooms, I amplify the voices of women and girls, interrogating systemic barriers and spotlighting rights-based approaches that move beyond tokenism to real transformation.

Decolonising the African Mind

I explore how colonial legacies continue to shape identity, education, and leadership in Africa — and how we can unlearn, reframe, and reclaim through decolonial thought.

Decolonising Charity, Storytelling & Aid

I challenge the “single story” of aid and charity, exposing embedded power dynamics and reimagining humanitarian response through dignity, agency, and equity.

Faith-Based Perspectives on Gender & Social Justice

I bring a fresh lens to faith and social justice, showing how spiritual traditions can be harnessed as catalysts for gender equity and social transformation.
