What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to contribute to impactful projects, foster community development, and utilize my skills in data analysis and policy research.

I am a motivated and results-driven graduate in Economics and Statistics, recognized for my strong work ethic and attention to detail. My academic journey at Masinde Muliro University has equipped me with a solid foundation in data analysis, policy research, and community development. I have proven experience in administrative support and data entry, which has honed my ability to work independently or as part of a team.

Throughout my career, I have engaged in various roles that allowed me to facilitate educational programs, conduct digital literacy training, and collect vital data for policy implementation. My time at organizations such as Hands Help Children Organization and the Kenya ICT Network has not only enhanced my leadership and mentoring skills but also deepened my commitment to impactful projects. I am eager to leverage my academic background and hands-on experience in a dynamic organization that values innovation and community engagement.
