What I'm looking for

I am looking to work within your organizational goals and objectives, investing time and effort to support your growth, while building my applied entomology and plant protection impact through consistent learning, responsibility, and results.

I am an applied entomology PhD candidate in view at Michael Okpara University of Agriculture, Umudike, with training across entomology and plant health management. My work focuses on practical insect research, including my publication on the incidence of the African invader fly (Bactrocera invadens) on mango in Nigeria, and I have presented my work at the Third World Organization of Women in Science (TWOWS) African Regional Conference.

Professionally, I combine research-minded precision with hands-on experience in agriculture and plant protection. I have served in the Pest Control Unit at the Ministry of Agriculture (Umuahia, Abia State), worked as an Agricultural Science Teacher (2011–2013), and completed service support as a Personal Assistant to the Project Manager of Agriculture and Rural Institutions’ Support Project (ARISP) during NYSC (Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development). I bring strong communication, high commitment to duty, and the ability to balance work under pressure—so I can contribute to organizational goals while continuously improving through learning and accountability.
