What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my public health expertise, engage with communities, and contribute to meaningful health initiatives while fostering professional growth.

I am a dedicated public health professional with extensive experience in program implementation, data collection, and community outreach. My work has primarily focused on developing health education initiatives and engaging with diverse populations to promote disease prevention. I am particularly passionate about HIV/AIDS awareness and environmental impact assessments, and I strive to improve health outcomes through collaboration and innovative strategies.

Currently, I volunteer as a Health Educator with the Kenya Red Cross, where I support emergency response efforts and engage in community training sessions. My previous roles include a Project Management Associate, where I successfully delivered multiple projects on time and within budget, and a Public Health Attachee, where I collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to design community health programs. I am committed to leveraging my skills in project management and public health to make a meaningful impact in the communities I serve.
