Owning the Conservation Narrative
In Malawi, we need to raise our voices more and take more action. We need to own the wildlife conservation narrative.
I am a explorer, storyteller and digital creator from Malawi, the land of the lake of stars. I document and tell stories about the beauty and awesomeness of Malawi, the African continent and her diverse people through words and photography.
I would love to partner with content creators and tourism brands on storytelling projects that expand the African narrative around tourism, travel, conservation and the continent’s people.
