I am a dedicated Senior Card Payment Application Officer with extensive experience in managing and supporting payment application systems. Currently, I work at Ethswitch, where I lead the Visa ATM acquiring project and provide critical support for system interoperability and card integration. My role involves training member banks and internal teams, ensuring they are well-equipped to handle operational tasks related to card issuing and acquiring.

Previously, I served as a Senior Payment Application Officer at Premier Switch Solutions SC, where I managed payment application software and collaborated with various banks on projects such as MasterCard acquiring and revolving credit card implementations. My background as a Database Administrator has equipped me with a strong foundation in database management and optimization, allowing me to troubleshoot and enhance system performance effectively.

With a Master’s degree in Project Management and certifications in Digital Money and Oracle Database, I am committed to continuous learning and professional development. I thrive in dynamic environments where I can leverage my technical skills and leadership abilities to drive successful project outcomes.
