Meet Kelly Omuhaya: Designing Dreams, Modeling Purpose, and Building a Brighter Future

 Kelly Omuhaya is not your average actuarial science student. Behind the sharp mind trained in numbers lies a powerhouse of creativity, expression, and purpose. As a model, fashion designer, and advocate for financial literacy, Kelly blends art and intellect to tell stories that matter—and to champion the value of empowered, creative minds.

With a personality that bridges both introversion and extroversion, Kelly describes herself as an ambivert—quiet and thoughtful, but confidently vocal when standing up for what she believes in. Her passion for books from a young age has fueled a wild imagination, one that now expresses itself through the runway and the sketchpad.

Fashion, to Kelly, is not about vanity but expression. As a designer, she doesn’t just create garments—she weaves narratives. Through fashion, she believes we can challenge norms, advocate for change, and speak volumes without saying a word.

In modeling, Kelly shines both as a pageant model and high-fashion model, currently contesting for Mr and Miss Kasarani 2025/26. But her goal goes beyond the crown. She sees the platform as a way to build her community, promote financial literacy, and uplift young creatives and women to recognize their value and potential.

For Kelly, creativity without empowerment is incomplete. She is on a mission to help others see the power of art, design, and self-worth in building sustainable futures.

She’s not just representing a face on stage—she’s representing a future driven by talent, courage, and vision
