I am a dedicated professional with extensive experience in project administration and human resource management. My career spans over a decade, during which I have honed my skills in strategic planning, change management, and team coordination. I hold a B.A. in Management and am currently pursuing a Master of Arts in Public Administration and Development Management.

Throughout my career, I have successfully managed various roles at the Higher Education Strategy Center, where I contributed to the development of strategic plans, coordinated performance reporting frameworks, and facilitated training sessions. My ability to analyze complex data and provide actionable insights has been instrumental in driving organizational change and enhancing operational efficiency.
