What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply strong data management and computer skills in a collaborative, service-driven team, with opportunities to support health research and improve data quality.

I am a meticulous data professional with hands-on experience as a Health Department Data Clerk at the Uganda Virus Research Institute, where I handled data entry, record updates, backups and file management to ensure accurate, accessible information.

I hold a BSc in Biology from Kyambogo University and a Certificate in Computer Repair and Mechanics, and I bring strong computer proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Publisher, along with excellent written and verbal English and Luganda.

I am integrity-driven, able to work under pressure with minimal supervision, and committed to contributing to organizational goals through accuracy, teamwork and a service-oriented approach.
