What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I can apply nutrition and public health skills, lead community data activities, and strengthen program data systems in an evidence-driven, collaborative organization.

I am a nutrition and public health professional with practical experience across clinical, community, and research settings. I combine hands-on nutrition assessment and counseling with field data collection and management to improve program outcomes.

I have supported hospitals and research projects—working on SAM supplementation, maternal health data collection, and community surveys—while ensuring accurate records and timely reporting. I lead field teams and coordinate with community health workers for household-level data collection.

My background includes diploma-level training in Nutrition and Dietetics and Community Health, and practical roles as a data manager, enumerator, and facility-based nutrition attachee. I am proficient with CTO and ODK platforms and comfortable managing procurement and inventory for project needs.

I seek to contribute to organizations that value evidence-driven program delivery, strong data systems, and community-centered nutrition interventions, bringing dependable field leadership and meticulous data practices.
