Education 

Uganda Martyrs University – Nkozi, Faculty of the Built Environment (Fobe), Nkozi Campus, Bachelors, Environmental Design

Environmental Design at Uganda Martyrs University is where I learnt a refined meaning of architecture as far as conceptual thinking is concerned.

School’s design culture was one of working on localized projects within communities, mostly in rural Africa. I hold these projects and their process dear because, it is from the engagement that I realized potential ways design could critically give back to communities.
