I hold a degree in Agroforestry, which has provided me with a strong foundation in sustainable land management and conservation practices. My academic background has fueled my passion for environmental conservation and climate resilience.

In my role as a Site Coordinator for One Acre Fund, I was responsible for overseeing the production and distribution of tree seedlings, directly contributing to reforestation efforts and sustainable agricultural practices. This experience allowed me to engage with local farmers and communities, promoting practices that enhance both food security and environmental sustainability.

Through my work, I have developed a deep understanding of the challenges and opportunities within climate development, particularly in the context of African agriculture. I am motivated to join the Africa Youth Negotiators Fellowship to further enhance my knowledge of international climate policy and to advocate for youth involvement in shaping sustainable environmental strategies across the continent.
