I thrive in diverse working environments and possess excellent analytical skills, which enable me to effectively manage financial operations and ensure compliance with regulations.

Throughout my career, I have held various roles, including Grants Officer and Finance and Logistic Assistant, where I developed budgets, conducted compliance checks, and managed procurement processes. My ability to communicate effectively and provide capacity-building support has been instrumental in fostering strong relationships with sub-awardees and stakeholders. I am dedicated to maintaining high standards of financial management and ensuring the timely fulfillment of organizational obligations.
