What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated administrator with a strong background in social sciences and extensive experience in research planning, data analysis, and project management. My academic journey began at Makerere University, where I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Social Sciences, complemented by a Cisco Certified Network Associate qualification. I have honed my skills through various roles, including Field Coordinator and Research Assistant, where I successfully managed field operations and supervised research teams.
Throughout my career, I have been involved in significant projects that required meticulous data management and stakeholder coordination. My role as an Executive Secretary allowed me to mobilize potential investors and manage commercial activities effectively. I take pride in my ability to execute fieldwork plans and ensure quality control, which has led to successful project evaluations and policy redirection. I am passionate about contributing to impactful research and fostering collaboration across sectors.
