Africa Interactive Kenya Ltd is a subsidiary branch of Africa Interactive in Amsterdam. We are closely working together with the Amsterdam office to create engaging media-productions for our clients; MNOs, NGOs and governmental organizations all over the world.

Since the start of VC4Africa I have been involved with this exciting startup as I believe in entrepreneurship as the way forward for the new generations in Africa. Since 2010 I have been writing for the www.vc4africa.biz website and coordinating the contributions from all over Africa.

As a Content Director I coordinated the production of corporate and documentary video production commissioned throughout Africa by working with local media professionals in 54 African countries and beyond. Besides producing corporate videos, I was also the producter of a 20-episode series titled "Aid or Trade?" which showcases succesful business opportunities in African countries that have a business (trade) and social (aid) component: http://vimeo.com/channels/aidortrade

I've producer a web and TV series called 'Spark Africa'. A 20 episode online videoseries about doing business in Africa, focusing on innovative projects and sustainable companies.

I have worked at the Cape Times newspaper in Cape Town for three months in 2003 as an intern. That was a great experience!
