What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values teamwork, and allows me to utilize my skills to drive impactful results.

Throughout my professional life I have developed and continue to maintain a robust client base while providing tailored solutions to them. My academic background in Economics and Statistics from Egerton University has equipped me with strong analytical skills, enabling me to assist clients effectively in long-term planning and coverage recommendations.

Previously, I interned as a Human Resource/Administrative Assistant at Healthy Entrepreneurs, where I contributed to the implementation of HR policies and improved administrative processes. My experience as an Enumerator with the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics honed my data collection and analysis skills, ensuring accuracy in survey results. I am passionate about leveraging my skills to make a positive impact in the community.

I am an organized, detail-oriented professional with a passion for helping businesses stay on top of their game. I love streamlining tasks, managing online platforms, and keeping things running smoothly behind the scenes. I thrive on organization, clear communication, and making my clients’ lives easier. Excited to connect and explore new opportunities.
