What I'm looking for

I seek a role using multimedia design and communications to support outreach and operations, in a collaborative, mission-driven team offering growth.

I am a creative and innovative communicator with over six years of experience in multimedia design, virtual assistance, and administrative support. I combine strong analytical thinking with entrepreneurial drive to deliver high-quality visual and written content.

I have directed design and printing services, managed social media campaigns, and served as a UNICEF enumerator for birth registration exercises, demonstrating reliability in fieldwork and document handling.

My technical toolkit includes Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, CorelDRAW, Canva, CapCut, Microsoft Office suites, and general video and photo production skills, which I apply to create engaging graphics, cartoons, and campaign materials.

I thrive in fast-paced, mission-driven teams where I can contribute design leadership, organized digital workflows, and clear communications to support outreach, awareness, and operational goals.
