I am a 21 year old with interest in International Relations and diplomacy. This interest started in my early years when I attended Primary, middle and high school at Marina International School, Lusaka International School in Zambia and Kenton Preparatory College in Nairobi, Kenya respectively. During this period, my in- teractions, relationships and associations have always been multicultural aiding my appreciation of other cul- tures, religions but most importantly helping me develop strong core values.
