What I'm looking for

I seek roles where I can lead digital communications and program delivery in mission-driven organizations, manage cross-functional teams, and drive measurable stakeholder engagement and impact.

I am a project and program manager with 5+ years of international experience delivering complex, multi-stakeholder communications and digital transformation projects for UN agencies, NGOs, and private-sector clients. I lead remote, multicultural teams, align strategies with organizational goals, and produce high-quality reporting, donor visibility materials, and digital platforms to maximize program impact.

I have successfully developed communication plans, managed social media and website content, and provided crisis communications and media relations support while improving engagement metrics and delivering actionable analytics. My experience spans program coordination, stakeholder engagement, risk management, and content and knowledge management across humanitarian and development contexts.
