In addition to her thriving career as a behaviour therapist in the U.S., Linda has also pursued justice for the unauthorized use of her image in the viral photo.
In 2014, she successfully sued a local media house for Sh6.5 million in damages, citing the improper sharing of her image and likeness for commercial gain. Despite the legal battle, Linda has focused on building a brighter future for herself and her family.
While Linda has found success abroad, she hasn't forgotten her roots in Kenya. She has been actively involved in developing her rural home, where she has built a beautiful house for her family.
