Paul Kato

Founder & President

Born in Kwoi, Nigeria, Paul Kato attended primary school in Kwoi before moving around from Trinity Christian Academy in Dallas, Texas, to Rift Valley Academy in Nairobi, Kenya, and finally to Hillcrest Academy, back in Nigeria. Mr. Kato graduated from Spring Arbor University and pursued a few different paths before becoming a high school teacher. His background, love of soccer, and passion for education passed down from his parents inspired KITA.
