Bio
Denise Ker Waldron
Incredible analytical skills, communication skills, and detail-oriented! Kanyimbe was able to design the foundational model for our life-launching road map at Life2Launch. He provided insightful data on how to approach the development of a new societal model that could provide a holistic approach to a life and career framework for young adults. He used initiative and worked autonomously to create structure and a process that provided me with a strong level of trust and confidence that we were moving in the right direction. His enthusiasm and "can do" attitude were such a boost of encouragement that is so needed when creating a new start-up. I highly recommend Kanyimbe! He has so many skills to offer and he's a ton of fun to work with!
