About

I am an enthusiastic, energetic, committed and self-motivated person with a positive attitude. I work well in a team as well as independently and can easily adapt to new environments, challenges and people of different backgrounds while still maintaining a high level of professionalism and integrity at all times. An organized, creative individual who is willing to learn on the job as well as in school which has given me the ability to plan effectively ahead and manage my time accordingly. Looking forward for a challenging opportunities to get experience from working in various fields and thematic areas that will enable me broaden my skills set whilst making use of my education background and expertise, knowledge and experience that I have built over time while working in the International Development space.
