What I'm looking for

I seek a role that values collaboration and offers opportunities for professional growth.

I hold a Bachelor’s in Mathematics Education and have developed a diverse skill set through my experiences in education, logistics, and community service. My role as an Operations Assistant at Cosmo Africa Shipping Ltd has allowed me to deliver efficient administrative support, ensuring seamless communication between departments and optimizing office systems for improved task management.

In addition to my logistics experience, I served as a Volunteer Teacher at Ndeke Secondary School, where I implemented innovative teaching techniques to enhance student engagement and understanding. My commitment to fostering a supportive educational atmosphere is reflected in my mentorship of students, guiding them in their academic pursuits. Furthermore, my role as a Caretaker for the Chess Set Distribution project demonstrates my dedication to community service and resource management, as I coordinated the distribution of chess sets to promote educational opportunities across the Copperbelt region.
