About Me

Passionate about leveraging data to improve public health outcomes

I am a seasoned public health professional with over 15 years of experience bridging data analytics and health systems strengthening across Africa and Switzerland. My expertise spans monitoring and evaluation, project management, and research, with a particular focus on designing evidence-based interventions for vulnerable populations.

Throughout my career, I have served both the public and private sectors in health and social development projects. My expertise lies in designing, managing, and implementing social and development programs, including public finance, education, and community health, where I have worked on malaria and HIV/AIDS prevention programs in Africa.

I pride myself on being a highly motivated, self-initiated, and hardworking individual with excellent interpersonal skills. I am also reliable and have the ability to work both independently and as part of a team.
