What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values efficiency and innovation, where I can contribute to impactful projects and collaborate with diverse teams.

I am an operations and communications specialist with over 5 years of experience in streamlining systems and enhancing efficiency across various sectors. My journey has been defined by my ability to create scalable tools and processes that not only boost productivity but also foster a human-friendly work environment. I have a strong belief in the power of automation, and I strive to implement solutions that are both effective and user-centric.

Throughout my career, I have held significant roles, including Operations Manager at Think Zambia, where I built SOPs and automated workflows to support development operations across multiple countries. My experience as a Board Member for the Think Zambia Foundation has further honed my skills in advising on organizational systems and collaborating with global stakeholders. I thrive in fast-paced environments where clarity and quick decision-making are essential, and I am passionate about using my skills to drive impactful change.
