The African Girl Who Leads Circle

Yep, that’s me!

The one who knows African girls belong at the center of Africa’s future, an Obama Africa Leader, Global Democracy Fellow, youth governance and development practitioner, speaker, and purpose-driven advocate for leadership, democracy, and civic change across Liberia and Africa.
With over a decade of experience, my work has centered on helping young people, especially girls and young women, find their voices, own their stories, and participate meaningfully in governance, advocacy, and public leadership.
Through program leadership, mentorship, facilitation, stakeholder engagement, and public speaking, I work to turn bold ideas into practical action while preparing the next generation of African leaders to lead with confidence, courage, values, and purpose.
I am driven by faith, rooted in service, and committed to raising African girls and young women who know that where they come from does not limit where they can go.
