What I'm looking for

I’m looking to apply GIS, remote sensing, and ESG/M&E methods to deliver accurate environmental insights, compliant reporting, and measurable impact evidence—working with teams that value documentation and stakeholder clarity.

I’m a GIS and data professional with 3+ years of experience in geospatial analysis, remote sensing, ESG, and M&E. I translate environmental and climate data into clear insights that support compliance, risk assessment, and decision-making.

In ESG work, I’ve supported audits and sustainability reporting, helped develop governance frameworks aligned to international standards, and contributed to environmental data analysis for compliance and risk. I’m currently pursuing a Postgraduate Diploma in Monitoring & Evaluation to strengthen impact assessment, ESG compliance, and reporting capacity.

I also bring hands-on program and research experience from SDG-focused work and data labeling roles, where I delivered high accuracy, improved data validation workflows, and produced climate resilience briefs and governance reports for community development projects. I’ve contributed to climate trend summaries and weather preparedness outreach through my internship at the Kenya Meteorological Department.

Beyond analysis, I’ve managed operational performance in property management—running day-to-day operations for a residential unit and improving rent collection, tenant satisfaction, and monthly reporting accuracy through structured follow-up systems and better documentation. I bring that same rigor to reporting and stakeholder-facing work—reliable, documented, and action-oriented.
