Christine Mungai

‘Your network is your networth’ is an adage that we often hear about. In this episode, Kenyan multiple-award winning journalist and writer Christine Mungai, shares with us how her network paved her way into journalism after studying for a science degree. Her journey is aspiring and intriguing as she chronicles how she goes beyond descriptive journalism into analytic journalism, making her work outstanding.  Christine shares how we need to wrap our story ideas in the “wrapping paper of the editor”. With such a fulfilling journey, one is tempted to think Christine has reached the peak of her career, yet she says she is ready to sprint in the media and writing journey.

I was honoured she shared her journey with me, a classic case of thinking and implementing without a box. Follow her on Twitter @chris_mungai
