What I'm looking for

I seek roles in psychology, education or HR where I can apply research, emotional intelligence and leadership to build supportive, collaborative teams and improve wellbeing.

I am a psychologist with a B.Sc. in Psychology and hands-on experience in school teaching and HR internships, focused on research and building emotionally stable work and learning environments. I led a research team on test-, statistical- and mathematics-anxiety and served as a subject teacher during NYSC, managing curriculum, exams and practicals.

I hold diplomas and certificates in leadership and emotional intelligence and bring strong communication, teamwork and problem-solving skills. I work well with minimal supervision and seek to apply research, emotional intelligence and leadership to support students and employees and improve organizational wellbeing.
