I am an public health professional, Epidemiologist and programs manager driving data-led disease prevention and health system improvements.
What I'm looking for
I am an Epidemiologist with extensive experience in disease outbreak investigation, surveillance, and designing interventions for communicable and non-communicable diseases.
As Programs Manager and Operations Lead, I have led donor-funded initiatives, coordinated cross-country research on renewable energy and water access, and overseen project design, stakeholder engagement, and strategic planning. I have managed budgets totaling over £310,000 and delivered digital platforms and high-profile events, including the SIDE and Voice projects.
I combine public health expertise with business analysis, monitoring & evaluation, and digital health innovation to translate data into actionable program strategies and policy recommendations, and I seek roles where I can lead program design, capacity building, and evidence-driven decision making.
