What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that values hard work and offers opportunities for professional growth, where I can apply my skills in project coordination and community outreach.

I am a highly organized and detail-oriented professional with extensive experience in administrative support, project coordination, and field research. My career has been marked by a proven ability to manage data, compile reports, and support community outreach initiatives, particularly in challenging environments. I am fluent in multiple languages, including English, Swahili, and Somali, which facilitates effective communication in multicultural settings.

Throughout my career, I have successfully contributed to various organizations, including the Women Enterprise Fund, where I played a critical role in analyzing and appraising loan applications, leading to increased financial inclusion for women. My work as a Human Rights Monitor with the Independent Medico-Legal Unit allowed me to document and respond to human rights violations during the 2022 elections, ensuring timely reports that enabled corrective actions. I am passionate about empowering communities and enhancing my professional skills in an organization that values hard work and responsibility.
