You were born and raised in Kenya, what brought you to Swansea University?

My attendance at Swansea University in some ways can be characterized as divine serendipity because I never applied to Swansea. Kenya House in London offered me a choice between Aberystwyth and Swansea. Following research via Encyclopedia Britannica and difficulty pronouncing the former, the choice became simple. It turned out to be one of the best decisions of my life. Three of the best years of my life.
