What I'm looking for

I seek a program or research role in a mission-driven organization with clear career progression, field-based responsibilities, and opportunities to lead monitoring, evaluation, and data-driven program improvements.

I am a research and program professional with hands-on experience in humanitarian cash transfer programs, data validation, and field-level monitoring. I have worked with national agencies and NGOs supporting beneficiary registration, post-distribution monitoring, and mobile data collection for large-scale programs.

My background includes roles as a Validation Officer for the Hunger Safety Net Programme at NDMA, Assistant Program Officer for food security and livelihoods at TARDO, and Content Supervisor for the Kenya Population and Housing Census. I bring strengths in project management, stakeholder engagement, attention to detail, and quantitative data collection and validation.

I am motivated to join an organization that values impact-driven program delivery, clear career progression, and collaborative field operations where I can apply my skills in community development, monitoring & evaluation, and program implementation.
