What I'm looking for
I am a public health professional with over 12 years of progressive management and leadership experience across clinical care, humanitarian response, and program management, complemented by recent work in strategic private investments and small-scale commercial farming. I have frontline clinical experience as a clinical officer, managed health clinics in humanitarian and municipal settings, and led program planning, monitoring and evaluation, and stakeholder engagement for health initiatives.
Currently I serve as a Program Officer Intern focusing on NCD program design, capacity building, M&E, and resource mobilization while engaging ministries and partners across African countries.
