What I'm looking for

I'm seeking applied economics research opportunities focused on health, development, and socio-economic policy, where I can use advanced econometrics to inform data-driven decisions, publish research, collaborate with policy communities, and grow as an independent researcher.

I've led econometric analyses at Ipsos Kenya that informed public-sector policy decisions across multiple sectors, translating complex datasets into actionable insights for stakeholders.

As a Research Assistant at Kenyatta University, I collected and organized research data, supported literature reviews, and prepared reports and documentation for academic research projects. My work spans econometrics, health economics, policy impact evaluation, survey design, and household welfare analysis.

I'm completing a Master of Economics in Econometrics, researching socio-economic factors shaping household out-of-pocket healthcare expenditures in Trans-Nzoia County. I want to use rigorous applied economics research to improve equitable healthcare access and household welfare in developing countries.
