Detail-oriented meteorologist passionate about aviation weather services.
What I'm looking for
I am a passionate and detail-oriented meteorologist with a solid academic background and real-world experience in aviation weather services. I thrive in high-pressure environments where accuracy and clarity matter. Whether I’m decoding METAR messages, analyzing radar data, or briefing pilots before takeoff, I love using science to keep people safe.
On top of my technical skills, I’ve also built strong communication and customer service abilities. Whether I’m speaking to a team or writing a report, I know how to make complex information easy to understand. My experience as a meteorological intern at Jomo Kenyatta International Airport has equipped me with practical skills in collecting and recording weather data, preparing aviation reports, and delivering briefings to aviation teams.
