Africa is the new frontier for tech and the rate of destruction of business models is staggering. And the winners are those who are adapting to the expectations of the digital customer, triggering a scramble for tech-savvy consultants to shepherd firms through the transformation.

Donald is that kind of leader.

From his base in Ireland, he coordinates with PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) teams in Africa to infuse digital solutions to client requirements. His main role is to guide the firm in identifying and adopting digital tools to aid in streamlining operations.

The Moi University-trained IT degree holder has had several highlights in his career journey.

"In the last two and a half years, I played a big role in driving digital transformation in 16 African countries through the PwC network of firms to boost clients’ experiences and drive revenue."
