I map vulnerable communities and turn humanitarian data into preparedness decisions.
NigeriaWhat I'm looking for
At the Nigerian Red Cross Society, I map vulnerable households and translate field data into preparedness and response planning. I mapped 3,000+ households across four communities in Ohaji/Egbema using QGIS, OpenStreetMap and KoboToolbox, identifying flood paths and evacuation routes.
I also produced spatial vulnerability maps for Agboyi Community, co-led an EVCA across four communities in Oguta, and delivered Power BI dashboards supporting beneficiary tracking and flood-response reporting. My work includes ETL, survey standardisation, needs assessments and reporting aligned with IFRC and British Red Cross practices.
Previously at IOM, I supported rapid impact assessments in flooded Oguta communities through transect walks, direct observation and KoboCollect/ODK data collection. I bring practical GIS, humanitarian information management and analytics skills to community resilience work.
