What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters innovation and collaboration, allowing me to leverage my data expertise to drive impactful solutions.

I am a dedicated Information Technology and Data Expert with a strong background in database management and data analytics. My experience spans various roles, including Data Lead at BRALIRWA, where I monitor data security standards and ensure data quality through rigorous checks and cleansing processes. I excel in developing technical manuals and training materials, empowering teams to effectively utilize data systems.

Previously, I served as an IT and Data Coordinator at the Swiss Tropical and Public Health Institute, where I supervised IT infrastructure setup and maintained system performance. My role involved liaising with local institutions to integrate project tools with health systems, showcasing my ability to bridge technical and operational needs. My tenure as MIS Manager at Global Communities Rwanda further honed my skills in managing IT systems and ensuring data security, allowing me to contribute significantly to organizational efficiency.
