Bachelor of Commerce Student | Aspiring Auditor | Community Volunteer

I am a focused and enthusiastic Bachelor of Commerce student at Strathmore University, currently in my third year, with a strong interest in accounting, auditing, and financial management. I recently gained hands-on experience through an internship with PwC Kenya’s audit team, where I supported audit procedures, performed financial statement reviews, and assisted with audit documentation. This opportunity deepened my understanding of audit processes and enhanced my analytical and problem-solving skills. Beyond academics, I am passionate about giving back to the community. I actively participate in charity initiatives focused on youth empowerment and education, driven by a deep commitment to making a meaningful difference in people’s lives. These experiences have helped me develop valuable soft skills such as teamwork, leadership, and effective communication.
