Media Career
She started her media practice in 2013 at Nakaseke Kiwoko-based community radio for her internship. She was convinced that in the communities we live, the “village” people have stories to tell so she made a decision to work in rural setting. After her internship, she joined Red Pepper Publications at their Luweero Bureau.
Her Inspiration for Media Practice
During her Primary Six, she was privileged to present a school report before the then vice president Gilbert Bukenya. At the event, three big cameras were placed before her and covered her as she read the report. The following day, it was aired on UTV (UBC now). That momentous event seeing herself on TV inspired her to start praying so hard that one day she should be the one behind such cameras to tell people’s stories. Indeed this burning desire came to fruition when she joined Tv media services
Future Plans that saw her switch from NTV to BBS Terefayina to Chevening University
Riding on her slogan “My story must change”. This driving force saw her join Masengere based Buganda Kingdom Bbs Terefayina where she offered her services dedicatedly winning various accolades that thrust her into the limelight that later caused traction from Chevening University to offer her a scholarship where she has so far achieved the epoch of a masters degree.
