What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can apply M&E and verification expertise to drive data-driven decisions, manage teams, and improve program or operational performance in a collaborative, impact-focused environment.

I am a detail-oriented Senior Verification Analyst with experience in e-commerce verification, risk assessment, and customer KYC processes. I leverage analytical skills to ensure data integrity and inform operational decisions that reduce risk and improve performance.

Previously, I served as a Monitoring & Evaluation Manager for an NPO, where I designed monitoring tools, led quarterly M&E facilitation, and reported program performance across five regions. I managed teams and oversaw performance tracking for dozens of partner organizations.

My background includes a Bachelor of Social Science and an Honours in Sociology, with strong qualitative and quantitative research experience, including a research essay on the justice system and gender-based violence. I am proficient in M&E data tools, SPSS, CRM systems, and e-commerce platforms.

I am committed to fostering a data-driven culture, delivering actionable insights, and supporting evidence-based program improvements that drive organizational impact.
