What I'm looking for

I seek remote or on-site roles where I can apply data-driven ESG analysis, carbon accounting, and sustainability reporting to deliver measurable operational and environmental improvements, and collaborate with teams committed to rigorous standards and impact.

I am a sustainability data analyst and ESG advisor who turns environmental, social, and governance data into actionable business intelligence. I specialize in carbon accounting, sustainability reporting, and energy performance tracking using SQL, Power BI, and advanced Excel to support data-driven decision-making.

I have delivered measurable results across real estate and organisational portfolios — including a 10% energy reduction across 20+ commercial buildings, 15% operational efficiency gains, and a 30% improvement in impact tracking systems. I’ve worked as a lead sustainability consultant, independent advisor, and sustainability analyst for organisations across Africa.

I hold an M.Sc. in Environmental Science (Distinction) and certifications including IFC EDGE Expert and DGNB International Consultant, and I publish research on urban sustainability risk. I am available for remote engagement globally and open to relocation for the right role.
