About
Peter is our Executive Director, spearheading our mission and cultivating an organizational culture that is centered on compassion and duty to the children we serve. Peter was born and raised in rural Kenya and understands, first-hand, the plight of children growing up in poor rural backgrounds, and the things that are possible if these children are involved in problem solving in meaningful ways. He started his career in the financial markets, working in banking and in the fintech space for a decade in Kenya and Europe, before he found his life’s purpose. Peter is a Chartered Financial Analyst, an MBA finalist at the University of East London, and holds a Bachelor’s degree with honours in Economics and Statistics from Kenyatta University.
