What I'm looking for

I seek a role combining project management and nutrition programming where I can lead community-centered initiatives, train staff, monitor impact, and grow program reach.

I am a results-driven project officer and nutritionist with four years managing organizational functions, stakeholder engagement, and program implementation. I combine field-level nutrition work with project management to drive measurable improvements in program uptake and beneficiary satisfaction.

I have led school nutrition initiatives, trained teachers and communities, conducted qualitative data collection, and produced regular reports that informed program decisions. My work has produced documented gains such as higher enrollment in programs, improved customer satisfaction, and stronger stakeholder relationships.

I bring strong leadership, communication, training and monitoring skills, along with practical experience in budgeting, qualitative research, and community mobilization. I seek roles where I can apply my nutrition expertise and project management experience to expand program reach and impact.
