What I'm looking for

I seek HR roles where I can lead HR operations, implement HRIS and analytics, improve recruitment and retention, and mentor teams in a values-driven organization.

I am a proactive and passionate Human Resources generalist with over seventeen years of experience in HR planning, administration, recruitment, performance management and HRIS implementation across public and private sectors. I have led teams, redesigned recruitment and HR processes, and delivered measurable improvements such as 95% departmental target completion, 30% higher employee engagement, improved recruitment pipelines, and 100% compliance with Kenyan labor laws.

I excel at building HR systems and analytics dashboards, coordinating large-scale recruitment campaigns, and delivering training and mentorship for HRIS rollouts. I focus on practical, data-driven HR solutions that enhance retention, internal promotions, payroll accuracy and employee satisfaction, and I consistently partner with leadership to align HR initiatives with organizational objectives.
