What I'm looking for

I'm seeking a role in social policy, research, monitoring and evaluation, or community engagement, where evidence and field experience improve services for vulnerable groups.

At Shungu Dzevana Trust, I managed case files and wellbeing assessments for 50+ children, helping inform individual care plans. I also recorded programme activity and child development data that contributed to monthly reports and M&E documentation.

My dissertation at Midlands State University investigated the long-term outcomes of orphaned children after leaving care. As a trained SAYWHAT peer educator, I facilitated sessions and recorded engagement data; I currently support learners with disabilities remotely at Amani Disability Trust.
