What I'm looking for

I seek a remote role where I can lead operations or programs for mission-aligned organizations, drive process improvements, mentor teams, and deliver measurable impact.

I am a results-driven operations leader with 15+ years designing and delivering strategic initiatives across corporate, nonprofit, and consulting environments. I specialize in process optimization, program development, stakeholder engagement, and building high-performing teams to achieve measurable outcomes.

In my current roles I manage day-to-day operations, institute clear workflows, and lead training and capacity-building efforts that improve accountability and service delivery. I have launched community health and advocacy programs, coordinated humanitarian support and fundraising, and published advocacy-focused works to raise public awareness.

My background includes organizational analysis, consultancy, workshop design, and founding and scaling mission-driven programs that serve hundreds of beneficiaries. I hold advanced degrees in project management and public administration and seek to apply my experience to drive efficiency and impact for mission-aligned organizations.
