What I'm looking for

I am looking for a dynamic work environment that values growth and innovation.

I am a passionate and detail-oriented proofreader currently working at Transcriptionstaff since May 2023. My journey in the professional world began with a diploma in Pharmaceutical Technology from the Technical University of Mombasa, where I graduated in 2022. I have a strong foundation in communication and interpersonal skills, which I have honed through various roles, including my time as a receptionist at Voda Taxi Services.

Throughout my career, I have embraced opportunities to work in diverse environments, from academic writing and transcription to assisting in an ICT center. My ability to work under pressure and collaborate effectively with teams has been instrumental in delivering quality services. I am continuously seeking to expand my knowledge and skills, aiming to contribute positively to any organization I am part of.
