What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead MIS/reporting initiatives, automate dashboards, and collaborate cross-functionally to improve data quality, compliance, and decision-making while supporting organizational growth.

I am an MIS and data management professional with over 20 years of experience across corporate, EdTech, and international NGOs.

I design and automate reporting frameworks and dashboards that turn large datasets into actionable insights for leadership; I led MIS across 25+ business units and managed data processes for 200+ faculty and 4,000+ employees.

My work has reduced manual errors by 40% and delivered cost savings such as a 70% reduction from a Student Information Portal and Android app; I have produced donor reports for USAID, BMGF and NACO and developed health and program portals for monitoring.

I work with MS Excel, Visio, Whimsical, Zoho People, Kobo and basics of Power BI/Power Query, and I prioritize stakeholder collaboration, process standardization and compliance to enable data-driven growth and operational efficiency.
