A Wish & Pledge During My Birthday!

Today is my birthday 1st June, it is another time I’m adding one year to my storyline or journey since I was introduced to the World.  I have changed physically and grown mentally,  but many things that I cherish forever is the values and principles  that I stand for, generosity, love, happiness, passion, hard-work, determination, prosperity and teamwork.

Thanks to all who have made me who I am and helped me in discovering myself as a champion of life. I thank God for installing the right ‘Apps’ in me with a stable operating system.  I will continue to share, inspire and educate my peers in discovering their own paths  by using their skills, time and talents.
May I live to see my grandchildren and I pray for God’s guidance all through my journey and never to change my BIG heart of helping others.

Asante Sana!

Creative Time as Captured

Below is a small piece of artwork I took using my mobile phone Alcatel onetouch during the opening of creative entrepreneurship class which took place at Crowne Plaza.

We were served with bottled water, a glass and a small paper coaster or mat written DRINK, THINK, RELAX. As a creative I was challenged with the three words to do something in connection to the item presented to me and emotions that surrounded me.

So far so good and I’m learning new things. Top on my list so far;

•  Money and Meaning
• Opportunity spotting
• Creative Life Cycle

Photography Through My Lens!

I love visual communication design which ranges from product design, animation, branding, photography, video  etc. As a photo enthusiast I love to narrow my subjects on people from the way they live, events, their environment etc.

My photography instinct started in 2009 when I was on an assignment to Zanzibar as an interim project manager where I bought the first Olympus digital camera. Since then, I have been occasionally taking photos for Nairobits and the Wilsen Initiative (Wi) activities.  I thank people who have invited me on a pro-Bono basis to take photos for them and people who have appreciated my work by sharing prompt feedback which is the greatest gift that I value.

I’m not a pro yet, but I’m on great paths of my learning and most of it happens by the philosophy of learning by doing and research on the internet.
