@wilsontalataza
I coordinate operations, manage accurate data, and support people across remote teams.
What I'm looking for
I've coordinated academic operations at the University of Buea, supporting more than 150 students annually while maintaining accurate grade books, inventory logs, and performance databases.
At Saint Monica's University, I managed examination logistics, reconciled assessment and examination records, presented operational reports to the university senate, and digitized historical archives to improve document retrieval.
I've also led project planning, budgeting, grant administration, and partnership outreach at Brite Academy International. My background in physics, materials engineering, Python, MATLAB, and cross-cultural collaboration helps me turn complex information into clear, dependable operational support.
