What I'm looking for

I seek a role that allows me to utilize my data analysis skills in impactful projects, preferably in wildlife conservation or public policy.

I am a dedicated Financial Analyst and Data Scientist with extensive experience in wildlife crime analysis and data management. Currently, I serve as a Regional Wildlife Crime Data Analyst at Space for Giants, where I design and monitor programs related to wildlife advocacy and legal capacity building in East Africa. My role involves coordinating court monitoring activities and maintaining a comprehensive database of high-profile wildlife crime cases, which has significantly contributed to understanding trends in criminal trial processes.

Previously, I worked as a Statistician at the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions, where I led data collection and analysis initiatives, contributing to the development of national frameworks aimed at addressing sexual and gender-based violence. My analytical skills and ability to present high-level data reports have been instrumental in supporting institutional performance management and strategic planning. I am passionate about leveraging data to drive impactful decisions and enhance the effectiveness of programs.
