She received her LL.B from University of Nairobi and her ATP qualifications from the Kenya School of Law. Her journey with Uvumbuzi began in 2017 while she was employed as a legal assistant at Kamau, Lando & Associates Advocates where she was introduced to Uvumbuzi Africa and readily volunteered to help coordinate awareness and advocacy events for the organisation.
In time, Natasha realised that her passion lay with the mission of Uvumbuzi especially with regard to youth and women conservation leadership; and seized the opportunity to join the team when she was offered a position. When she is not coordinating the implementation of Uvu-A’s programmes, Natasha enjoys travelling and creative writing with aspirations to give the world an international bestseller one day.
