Catherine Ongecha Taracha
Kenya 2015
Catherine Ongecha Taracha was brought up in Nairobi by her father, who was a strong pillar in her life. “He gave me direction and purpose, providing wise advice on all aspects of life,” she says. Although her father was only educated to primary class five, he sent her to all the best schools.
