Ongoing Civic Engagements
EcoPulse Alliance sprung from my deep-seated passion for research, my love for art, and my commitment to guiding young minds in select rural primary schools in eastern Africa. I realised that art could powerfully communicate the critical importance of conservation and leadership to youth. This social impact is the fruit of my endevours together with friends, weaving together education, art and conservation to foster leadership empowerment among these young minds, and nurturing a symbiotic relationship between humanity and the natural world.
