KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am a dedicated research assistant with several years of practical experience in challenging humanitarian environments.

Throughout my career, I have demonstrated strong communication and organizational skills, enabling me to effectively engage with diverse communities and stakeholders. I am fluent in English, Kiswahili, and Somali, which allows me to connect with a wide range of individuals.
