Balancing studies in Marketing with Festival Management and presidential duties, he’s built bridges through sports, faith, and social media, creating a thriving African student network. From founding a new society and the Napier African Festival to launching plans for an international student film festival and student support schemes, his vision centers on belonging, safety, and engagement.
