What I'm looking for

I seek mission-driven roles leading program design and scaling in education, workforce development, and digital skilling, focused on measurable impact, partnership-building, and inclusive learner outcomes.

I am an inclusive program strategist with 8+ years designing and scaling workforce development and digital skilling initiatives for underserved communities, combining systems-level thinking (MBA) with community-grounded insight (Anthropology).

I have built and scaled multi-city fellowships to 2,000+ participants annually, launched digital learning programs for 10,000+ learners, and led partnerships with donors and global organizations to ensure timely reporting, monitoring, and impact. I redesigned curricula and learning strategies, improved teacher engagement by 50%, and reduced fellow drop-out rates by 10% through data-informed improvements.

I thrive in fast-paced, mission-driven environments, connecting strategic design with on-the-ground implementation across remote cross-functional teams and local delivery partners, and I bring practical experience in project management, MEL, curriculum design, and facilitation.
