What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to leverage my economic expertise and contribute to impactful projects.

I am Yabatfenta Getachew Aleka, a dedicated professional with a Master's degree in Economic Policy Analysis from Addis Ababa University. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in economics, culminating in a thesis that explored the effectiveness of monetary policy transmission mechanisms on macroeconomic objectives. I graduated with distinction in my Bachelor's degree in Economics, where I focused on the determinants of economic growth in Ethiopia.

Currently, I serve as a Branch Business Manager at Bank of Abyssinia, where I have honed my leadership and management skills. My previous roles include lecturing at Addis Ababa University and St. Mary University, where I shared my knowledge and passion for economics with students. I have also contributed to research as a data collector for the International Labor Organization, showcasing my commitment to advancing economic understanding in Ethiopia.
