I am an economist specializing in public-sector budgeting, data analysis, and policy evaluation.
What I'm looking for
I am an economist with hands-on experience in public-sector budgeting, financial reporting and data analysis gained through roles at a national ministry and in data services.
At the Kenya Prisons Service I assisted in preparing departmental budget estimates, expenditure forecasts, variance analysis and drafting financial summaries, while at CloudFactory I collected and analyzed large datasets, designed data systems and applied statistical software and SQL to generate actionable insights. I hold certifications in Data Analysis and Professional Foundations (ALX) and apply visualization and reporting skills to support decision-making.
I am committed to using economic analysis to improve resource allocation and public service delivery and seek roles where I can contribute analytic rigor, clear reporting and collaborative problem-solving.
