What I'm looking for

I am seeking a role that allows me to leverage my extensive public health experience to drive impactful health initiatives and foster partnerships that enhance community health outcomes.

I am a Strategic Public Health Specialist with over a decade of progressive leadership in addressing critical health issues such as malaria, TB, and HIV/AIDS. My expertise lies in designing and executing donor-funded programs, building cross-sectoral partnerships, and translating policy into actionable strategies. I have a proven track record of success in stakeholder advocacy, monitoring and evaluation, and integrated program implementation at both national and sub-national levels.

Throughout my career, I have collaborated with esteemed organizations such as WHO, Malaria Consortium, and PSI, primarily in Nigeria. My role as a Community System Strengthening Manager has allowed me to lead significant initiatives, including an ITN mass campaign that achieved over 95% coverage. I am passionate about capacity building and have trained numerous health workers, ensuring they are equipped to deliver quality care. My commitment to public health is driven by a desire to improve health outcomes and foster sustainable development.
