Prior to joining Duke University, he took Civil Engineering at the University of Nairobi.

He is also a Gold Award holder of the President’s Award Programme.

In 2016, he was invited to speak at The Duke of Edinburghโ€™s International Award Special Projects Dinner in London.

The event was hosted by Theatre Royal Haymarket (TRH) and The Earl and Countess of Wessex KG GVCO.

He spoke movingly about the transformative impact of the Award on him: โ€œthe boy I was then would be proud of the man I am now. Indeed, the discipline, focus and leadership skills I gained as well as teamwork, social skills and the effort to keep physically fit are more than invaluable.

“I may not have much, but I choose to give the little I have, and the result is a sense of fulfillment which I cannot adequately express; some sort of self-actualization.โ€
