About

Sheila Nyaga

Communications Support Specialist · UNEP

MA Corporate Communication · Daystar University (Ongoing)

I am a strategic communications professional with a track record of shaping narratives that matter for international NGOs, development organisations, and private-sector brands across East Africa.

My background spans broadcast journalism, corporate communication, and digital media. I combine rigorous storytelling instincts with platform fluency - from long-form stakeholder reports to short-form video content that drives measurable engagement.

I am currently based in Nairobi, Kenya, and bring to every role a commitment to clarity, speed, and ethical communication - the three things organisations can never afford to sacrifice.

I am also building a consultancy - MRGN PR - rooted in the belief that the margin between a well-managed story and a mismanaged one is where reputations are made or lost. The vision is to work with organisations across Africa that operate in high-stakes environments, helping them communicate with precision when it counts most: during crises, leadership transitions, and moments of public scrutiny. It is, in many ways, an extension of everything I have learned in the field.
