What I'm looking for

I’m seeking opportunities in Project Management, Operations Management, or Program Development, where I can apply data-driven planning, data quality assurance, team leadership, and process improvement to strengthen program performance.

I’m a Program Knowledge, Operations, and Project Management professional with 12 years of experience leading data-driven programs for children and youth. I specialize in Monitoring & Evaluation (M&E), operational efficiency, and improving workflow and program performance across multiple locations.

In my most recent role, I managed daily departmental operations to ensure 100% completion of planned activities and on-time delivery of reports to stakeholders. I monitored data quality across the program database, trained 100 program location staff on Excel and database navigation, and delivered regular and ad hoc M&E reporting—driving major improvements in data accuracy, timeliness, and coworker performance.
