This episode is the inspiration you need! We've got Rina Waligo on the show—a design enthusiast with big dreams from Uganda to the world!
Back in 2015, Rina kick-started her creative journey at Nairobi Design, and ever since, she's been hustling to become the designer she always wanted to be. With experience from Kenya, Uganda, and China, she's soaked up diverse influences like a sponge, leaving her creative mark everywhere she goes!
Rina's the brains behind Mpenzi Paper Studio and Ibuno Design, where graphic design reigns supreme! But here's the cherry on top—her design passion intertwines perfectly with her love for the environment! She defies the odds and keeps pushing forward, despite doubts from family, friends, and society.
She's proof that chasing your dreams and staying true to your values can lead to amazing things. This one's for all the creative souls out there!
This is the fifteenth episode under the ‘Shifting Narratives’ program supported by the British Council SSA Arts.
