What pulled you to the hotel industry?
I always had a passion to work in the hotel industry as I am a people’s person. I feel the hotel industry gives a chance for one to be connected to the guests directly so that you can offer personalized service.
What are your thoughts on our tourism industry?
Leisure trend is slowly stabilizing but there is a new trend in Nairobi for MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences and Events). Nairobi is strategically placed between main cities. It is easy to get to by air and being the main hub where you want to hold your exhibition or meetings. It connects people in gatherings, events, meetings as well as businesses. as the main mark in between. The hotel industry is recovering from last year’s election period. The number of tourists coming in has been fluctuating since but the Kenya Tourism Board is investing a lot to emphasize on growing it further.

What's Your Shade?
I have seen many a red in my time. Some have made me cringe. If it weren’t for the exceptionally high maintenance of red colour, I would run home and shampoo it all off. Some have been stunners, blessedly. You would imagine women with darker complexion would not be able to rick blonde and red shades. Would you be surprised if I told you there is a wide range of colour you can experiment with?
