Tourism and Wildlife Cabinet Secretary nominee Rebecca Miano has a long career in the public service spanning for several years.
Miano is among the 10 CSs who are set to make a return to the Cabinet should Parliament clear them.
The nominee is set to be vetted on Saturday, August 3.
She had earlier been nominated to take up the position of the Attorney General.
President William Ruto named the new cabinet leaving out other members who were in his first cabinet.
Until their dismissal from office, Miano was the Trade CS, a position she held since last October.
She previously held that of the EAC, ASALs & Regional Development.
A quick look at her curriculum vitae shows that the 58-year-old from Nyandarua is married and has two children.
She holds a Bachelors Degree in Law from the University of Nairobi and also a Masters in Comparative Law from Australian National University.
She first worked at a Nairobi-based law firm, "Musyoka Annan & Company Advocates" between May 1991 and April 1992 and later joined "Slater and Gordon", a law firm in Queensland, Australia.
Between 1992-96, Miano worked at the Kenya Power and Lighting Company as an assistant legal officer.
In 1998, she joined the Kenya Electricity Generating Company (KenGen), as a senior legal officer before rising to be the principal legal officer, a position she held for four years.
Miano would later continue to scale up the ladder to become the company secretary and Director in charge of corporate affairs at the same state corporation.
Between July 2015 to March 2016, she was handed a new role as an acting human resource and administration Director.
In 2017, the nominee rose to the highest position at the company to be the managing director and chief executive officer, until she was appointed to join the cabinet.
Among her major achievements as the Trade CS include spearheading the signing and ratification by the National Assembly of the Kenya-EU EPA.
The Treaty guarantees duty-free-quota-free market access for all Kenyan products to the 27 European Union countries.
Additionally, she played a role in creating a working structure in partnership with relevant stakeholders for EPA sensitization sessions in Nairobi, Central, Lower Eastern, Coast, South Rift, North Rift, Western and Nyanza regions.
Miano is also credited for spearheading the groundbreaking and construction of Flagship Export Processing Zones in Busia, Eldoret, Muranga and Kirinyaga counties to spur Industrialization at the county level.
The program is expected to create at least 50,000 jobs per county and backward integration for local produce value addition for export.
