What I'm looking for

I'm looking for full-time field and health research work where I can lead mixed-methods evaluations, strengthen data systems, support participant tracking, and uphold research ethics across health facilities and communities in Malawi.

I lead mixed-methods health evaluations and field data systems across Malawi, supporting public health, community resilience, livelihoods, and health research programs.

At CARVE Africa, I directed the GIZ Umoyo wanga endline evaluation on menstrual health, hygiene, and sexual and reproductive health and rights across Dedza and Mchinji. I programmed KoBoToolbox surveys, coordinated qualitative interviews and focus groups, and maintained rigorous consent, confidentiality, and data-backup practices.

Across Njira Impact, Mott MacDonald, Abt Global, and the Malaria Alert Centre, I have managed monitoring workflows, clinical and operational research data, randomized controlled trial datasets, and decentralized field teams. My work includes data quality audits, automated validation scripts, regression analysis, mobile data collection, and training frontline health workers and field personnel.

I work comfortably in resource-constrained primary healthcare settings using KoBoToolbox, SurveyCTO, ODK, CommCare, R, Stata, SPSS, Python, SQL, Power BI, and DHIS2. I bring fluent English and local-language research support in Chichewa, Chitumbuka, and Chinyanja to sensitive community-level data collection.
