This was after completing my Uganda Certificate of Education (U.C.E) in 2015 at Nsozibbiri Comprehensive Secondary School in Jinja-Uganda.

I have expertise in various areas, including web editing, Wikipedia editing, photography, visual editing, graphic design, scriptwriting, fact-checking with 211 Check certification, blogging, social media management, training, and podcasting.

In addition, I currently serve as the Social Media Manager and Social Communication Officer for both the Association for Media Development in South Sudan (AMDISS) and the Media Development Institute (MDI). As the MDI clerk, I plan, develop, implement, and manage social media strategies for the organization's pages.
