I have led marketing and business development efforts securing major contracts, coordinated national-scale transport operations, and supported community-based program monitoring and proposal evaluation.

I combine disciplined leadership from coaching and team management with strong communication, project management, and compliance skills. I deliver organized HR administration, cost-effective procurement, and measurable operational improvements while mentoring teams and building stakeholder relationships.
