Gladys Thitu

Advisory Associate, East Africa


As the Advisory Associate for East Africa, I am responsible for coordinating the implementation of a number of essential advisory services projects in the region. Growing up in an agricultural town, I came to see how important investments in small-scale agriculture and inclusive rural development are in creating long-term solutions. I am excited to help Root Capital create that impact and am glad to bring my near-decade of experience with trainings, research, and database management to the team. When I’m not in the office I love traveling, organizing events, and playing badminton.
