I am the Head of Programs- Foundations & Pathway at ALX Africa. Previously, I spent two years consulting as a Learning Experience Designer for education companies across Africa. Before that, I was the Director of Learning at Moringa School in Nairobi.
I enjoy solving problems related to curriculum development, instructional design, and student culture. I incorporate principles of play in my approach to design ways for young Africans to critically and confidently engage with the future. I am curious about connections between African histories and imagined futures, and explore these ideas through science fiction and building worlds in role-playing games. I hope that my students, readers, and collaborators connect with their inner children through my work.
Selected Projects
Standard Bank Youth Employment Strategy
October 2021 – August 2022
I was contracted to conduct research and design a strategy for Standard Bank to redesign how young people were hired and engaged in their South African head office. The new policies from this redesign would then be rolled out across Standard Bank offices in Africa.
The African Leadership University wanted to completely redesign its learning model to serve thousands of students across Africa at distance. I was contracted as part of a team to conceptualize a new learning model with decentralized learning at its core and propose the necessary changes in organizational structure that would bring this model to life.
A Decentralized Future for ALU
July 2021 – September 2021
Much of Ghana’s cultural heritage is housed in its museums, but many of these institutions have been closed, struggling to attract and engage patrons. I was contracted to conduct research on the revival of the museum sector in Ghana and write a proposal for a revised educational strategy that would more actively and relevantly engage audiences.
