What I'm looking for

I'm looking to apply research coordination, stakeholder engagement, and strategic communications skills to work that strengthens public awareness, civic engagement, policy development, or organizational decision-making.

I've led research and communications work for Citizens Against Violence Trust and Zimbabwe Heritage Trust, turning community-driven and socio-historical research into reports, publications, presentations, and advocacy campaigns.

At Citizens Against Violence Trust, I directed research supporting digital advocacy on democratic principles and human rights. I collaborated with local, regional, academic, and civic partners to amplify engagement and knowledge exchange.

At Allied Insurance, I conducted risk evaluations for short-term insurance policies, managed renewals and endorsements, and communicated complex information to clients, brokers, and internal stakeholders.

My background in international relations, history, and social anthropology supports my work across qualitative research, policy development, stakeholder engagement, database management, and strategic communications.
