I am a young female professional focused on using the education I have acquired to improve the livelihoods of the rural population in Kenya. I spare no effort in ensuring that my duties are discharged diligently. I have a passion for environmental conservation. Therefore, as an agronomist involved in solving soil   health problems, I would like to contribute to improved agricultural productivity with minimum negative impact on the environment. 

Am looking for an opportunity to advance my career in a challenging work environment.
