Hi, I’m Kennedy Naftal. I’m a digital marketer, freelancer, and full-time volunteer who is passionate about using technology to create positive change. I specialize in digital marketing, content creation, and social media strategies. I help businesses grow by improving their online presence and connecting with their audiences.

My journey started with a background in journalism, where I worked as a reporter at Sikika Radio in the Kakuma Refugee Camp.

I also have a deep interest in technology, particularly in renewable energy and artificial intelligence (AI). I’m always exploring how these fields can be used to create sustainable and impactful solutions. My aim is to stay at the forefront of digital trends and apply these learnings to the projects I work on.

One of my personal projects is “Kennedy’s Shop Varieties,” a business focusing on casual wear, where I apply my digital marketing skills to reach more customers. I’ve also worked with organizations like the Red Cross, volunteering my time to help those in need and make a difference in the community.

I’m always looking for ways to learn and grow. I’ve completed courses in digital marketing, journalism, and pedagogy, and I’m continually expanding my knowledge in these areas. My goal is to combine my skills in marketing, technology, and entrepreneurship to empower others and contribute to a more inclusive and sustainable digital future.

Whether it’s helping businesses succeed online, exploring new technologies, or making a difference through volunteer work, I believe in the power of digital innovation to drive positive change. I’m excited about the future and the opportunities technology can offer in creating a better world for everyone.
