As a graduate of the University of Namibia, I’ve transitioned from social work into pioneering sustainable electric vehicle (EV) solutions as the CEO of Amperra Charging Company. I am dedicated to establishing amp:erra as a trusted brand in the EV space. My role is to align our mission with environmental sustainability and to champion the innovation that drives us forward, ensuring that we contribute to a greener future while meeting our clients’ demands for reliable EV charging.
