Data-focused M&E specialist skilled in digital data systems and actionable reporting.
What I'm looking for
I am a results-oriented Data Coordinator and Monitoring & Evaluation specialist with over five years supporting NGOs and research programs across East Africa. I specialize in designing and managing digital data collection systems and ensuring high data quality.
I have hands-on experience deploying CommCare, KoboToolbox, ODK and SurveyCTO forms, and I build cleaning and validation frameworks in Excel and Google Sheets that reduce reporting errors. I also produce dashboards and reports that inform program adjustments.
In the field, I have coordinated large enumerator teams, delivered training modules, conducted spot checks and led verification and accountability activities to safeguard data integrity. My projects include CommCare randomization logic, an attrition analysis dashboard and digital enumerator training guides.
I am passionate about applying technology to MEAL processes to improve accountability and learning, and I collaborate remotely using Google Workspace, Zoom and other tools to support cross-county teams and timely donor reporting.
