What I'm looking for

I seek roles in M&E or data management where I can lead monitoring systems, improve processes, train teams, and use Excel-driven analysis to drive outcomes in a collaborative, growth-oriented organization.

I am a Bachelor of Business Administration graduate and Principal Monitoring and Evaluation Officer with proven success leading system tests and UAT for an e-services module serving over 10,000 students. I produce data-driven reports, analyzed outcomes for over 1,500 students, and led staff training and process optimizations that improved retention and disbursement accuracy.

Previously I performed AML due diligence on 600+ customers, delivered AML training to colleagues, and supported procurement and data integrity efforts across institutions. I am an Excel expert who prioritizes process improvement, stakeholder collaboration, and continuous learning to drive measurable organizational results.
