What I'm looking for

I'm looking to lead climate-resilient, risk-informed WASH and environmental health programming that strengthens water services and public health in fragile, conflict-affected, and climate-vulnerable communities.

I've led humanitarian WASH, environmental health, and climate-resilience work across Yemen for 20 years, including technical engagement with the Santiago Network on Loss and Damage under UNFCCC. At Apex Consulting, I lead quality assurance and third-party monitoring for the Albaidha Water Supply Project, strengthening compliance with environmental safeguards and climate-resilient WASH standards.

At ADRA, I directed a USD 3.2M WASH, agriculture, and livelihoods programme that improved sustainable water access for more than 13,000 people through solar-powered borehole rehabilitation, provided 166 irrigation systems, and restored 10.2 km of rural roads serving 39,000 flood-affected people. I have also managed a USD 2.5M portfolio of nine WASH projects with SOUL for Development and provided national WASH and DRR technical leadership at Relief International.

My experience spans national WASH leadership at Action Contre la Faim, cholera emergency coordination, water-quality laboratory management, CCCM, shelter, nutrition, and clinical laboratory services. I bring practical experience building teams, coordinating with government, UN agencies, clusters, and partners, and delivering risk-informed services in fragile and conflict-affected settings.
