What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can lead infrastructure and security projects, mentor teams, and deliver reliable, scalable IT systems in a collaborative, growth-focused organization.

I am an IT professional with over ten years of progressive experience across telecommunications, ISPs, NGOs, and healthcare in Africa, focused on improving performance, dependability, and security of core business systems.

As IT Administrator at a major hospital, I led on-time, on-budget EMR and ICT infrastructure projects for multiple sites, developed SOPs that met ISO 9001 standards, and designed network security, backup, and VPN solutions that improved efficiency and protection.

My background includes hands-on systems administration (Windows, Linux), networking (routers, switches, VPNs, VoIP, MESH), vendor management, and user training — delivering high user satisfaction and measurable operational improvements.
