IAM inBORN Kenyan

Who Am I?

Do you call yourself a Kenyan? Which category do you belong?

1. By Birth
2. By Tribe
3. By Name
4. By Marital status
5. By Dual citizenship

WHAT ELSE?  No matter what you believe in, let us all embrace diversity inside Out. This is what I called InBorn.

IAM InBorn

#IAM inBORN Kenyan

As designers we need to claim our space by making great expression that will build the Kenya that we want. This T-shirt design is inspired by the philosophy of  our values that come from inside, whereby preaching and doing what we believe in developing a prosperous nation devoid of tribalism, impunity and discrimination. It is a celebration of our diversity, love, unity and peaceful coexistence in building a great Kenya for all built on the solid foundation of generations that foster greater values that will live beyond the test of time.

“It might be easy to be a citizen of any nation, but being patriotic requires more than changing your name or related document" Wilson Masaka founder, Wilsen Initiative (Wi)

I have been working on positive change projects, for example T-shirt design and sports venture among others  towards influencing positive ripple effects in the community . 

I’m proud to officially launch the IAM in Born T-shirt campaign, which I hope will inspire many to be the change they would wish to see in our society.

+throughMylens - Photography Journey

As a Visual Communication Designer, I major in Copy writing, Photography, Web, Print and Video, in general it’s about content creation. I’m a strong advocate of authentic content production and my inspiration comes from many sources. In my photography journey dubbed +throughMyLens I seek to document the positive side of life especially challenging the usual narrative of Africa being a continent of poverty, diseases, crime etc. whereby encouraging the next generation of Africans to proactively build a sustainable Africa by celebrating the good side and most of all telling our stories and not leaving it to predetermined scripts.

 I want to show the other side part of the coin in the story of Africa which wouldn’t make it to the front page of any newspaper because it isn’t termed as news as per their script. I’m a self taught person and I started photography back in 2008 and currently still learning how best to sharpen my skills and later monetizing the skills for quality and affordable prices by training others.
