Born and raised in Huruma from a humble family background, Wendy started doing acrobatics at the tender age of four, and now it has taken her to places she has never imagined from performing for world dignitaries, touring the World and now being appointed a UNICEF ambassador.
Wendy is a true testament that your talents can yield into good fruits even at a young age as long as you keep at it.
