I am a seasoned academic and researcher with over 17 years of experience in higher education and more than 20 years in conducting empirical studies. Holding a PhD in Sociology, I currently serve as a Lecturer in the Department of Sociology, Psychology, and Anthropology at Moi University. My work primarily focuses on understanding climate change and its intersections with gender dynamics, social justice, and sustainable development.
I have developed customized research methodologies that integrate gender-sensitive frameworks and participatory approaches to address complex social issues. My research portfolio includes studies that examine the impacts of climate variability on vulnerable communities, as well as investigations into how environmental challenges influence family cohesion and urban resilience. Notably, I have been actively involved in research that explores the multifaceted effects of climate change, from influencing livelihood patterns to impacting community health and food security.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I bring substantial expertise in monitoring and evaluation (M&E), data quality assurance, and stakeholder engagement. I have successfully managed interdisciplinary projects and mentored teams to apply innovative solutions in both academic and community contexts. Through my work, I strive to bridge the gap between rigorous academic research and actionable policy recommendations that promote accountability and sustainable climate adaptation.
I am eager to leverage my extensive experience and commitment to social equity to drive positive change and advance understanding of climate change impacts on marginalized communities.
