After graduating as a construction manager in 2017, Paul struggled to find a place to nurture his construction management skills as a construction manager and worked as a foreman, clerk of works and site engineer after which he was giving up on the local construction industry due to alot of travelling and staying away from family and his church community. By God's grace,  Paul joined EMI Uganda in 2019 as a construction management intern and has never looked back. He is now a CM project manager overseeing a couple of projects for some of EMI Uganda Ministry partners.

Ministry Experience

Paul is a last born of 8 to a born again mother and anglican father. Growing up, his mother always attended church with him as a teenager but its not until 2013 when he was 18 years old that he gave his life to Jesus Christ. He attended discipleship classes at a local church near his home where he joined the church choir and outreach ministries during his university. After discipleship, Paul became a fellowship leader at his church where he became responsible for leading a cell group of between 6-10 fellow believers where he developed a desire to be a witness of Jesus Christ to other fellow young people. Discipleship being  core value of EMI, Paul was motivated and inspired to join EMI after his Uni-friend who was working with EMI at the time told him about EMI Uganda.

Family

She has a big heart for children with special needs and loves worshipping God. Paul met Victoria in 2020 while working at Gem village at the time and they have a great heart for servanthood.
