About

I am a highly skilled Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability, and Learning (MEAL) professional with over nine years of experience in business development, project management, and social impact evaluation. My expertise spans designing and implementing MEAL systems, conducting qualitative and quantitative research, and capacity-building for organizations and communities. I employ evidence-based approaches and human-centred design to develop impactful maternal and child health interventions, gender-based violence, climate change, food security, disability inclusion, and WASH. Proficient in tools like Excel, NVIVO, and Jamovi, I translate data into actionable insights to inform policy and programming. I am a certified trainer in Child Safeguarding, Prevention of sexual Abuse, Exploitation, and Harassment (PSEAH), and Disability Inclusion Development. I have a proven track record of empowering teams to enhance their effectiveness. My passion lies in fostering community resilience through sustainable development, innovative problem-solving, and inclusive practices. I am actively seeking opportunities to apply my skills in MEAL, program management, and capacity-building to drive impactful initiatives in development and humanitarian sectors, particularly in health, climate resilience, and social protection.
