What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply health records and data management skills, support accurate reporting, work collaboratively in clinical settings, and grow in monitoring and evaluation.

I am a dedicated health records and data management professional with hands-on experience in clinical settings, data entry, cleaning, analysis, and routine reporting. I have supported multiple hospitals and health organizations in maintaining accurate patient records, using MOH tools, and contributing to DHIS reporting while delivering strong customer care.

My background includes a Diploma in Health Records and IT, short courses in Monitoring and Evaluation, and practical roles as a volunteer receptionist, data entry intern, and research data collector. I bring reliable recordkeeping, attention to detail, and a collaborative approach to improve data quality and support facility operations.
