Alex Mwangi
@alexmwangi
Agronomy graduate focused on agribusiness, supply chain and sustainable farming.
What I'm looking for
I am an agronomy graduate with hands-on experience in agribusiness operations, nursery management, and agricultural research. I combine academic training from Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology with practical attachments at research institutes and a retail operations internship to drive results.
At Quickmart I supported inventory management, POS troubleshooting, and data-driven stock analysis to improve procurement decisions. In research attachments I conducted field data collection, soil sampling, pest and disease scouting, and assisted with nursery propagation and tissue-culture hardening.
I am detail-oriented, adaptable, and passionate about sustainable food systems and value chains. I seek roles where I can apply analytical thinking, operational skills, and agronomic knowledge to deliver measurable improvements in agribusiness, supply chain, or development projects.
