At Kenya Electricity Generating Company PLC (KenGen), I managed field drone flight-log documentation and organized deformation monitoring records for Lake Naivasha.

I also structured Excel data for topographical surveys across geothermal wellheads and organized differential leveling data for exploration and drilling operations.

At Space for Giants Organization, I maintained and analyzed environmental tracking data using Google Earth Engine. I designed Tableau tracking dashboards and mapped a conservation electric fence corridor using Survey123.

As Personal Assistant to the Director at Urban Tech for Hope Ltd. (M-Kliniki), I coordinated executive schedules and corporate events, supported healthcare specialists onboarding to the telemedicine platform, and communicated executive feedback on platform updates to developers.
