MEET THE BUILDERS
Olga and Lorna met in High School over 20 years ago and have been friends since.
They have been each other’s sounding boards and have also had the pleasure of interacting with African Excellence through their professional work and personal journeys traversing the continent.
They were compelled to create Arch Africa to share some of the pivotal lessons learned and continue to pick up from the lens of “If we knew then what we know now, what would we have done differently?”
