A highly resourceful and experienced project management and development professional with experience in large-scale implementation, partnership management, and government relations across different counties in Kenya.

My expertise lies in the design and implementation of large-scale programs with government and development partners. So far, I have implemented programs in partnership with counties of the government of Homa bay, Kisumu, Kakamega, and Kiambu and other partners such as the Ministry of Health, Ministry of Education, Teachers Service Commission, and Peek Vision Limited.

In my current and past roles, I have enjoyed the challenge of coordinating, building, and strengthening socio-economic and healthcare systems and community-based projects that support capacity development, managing excellent teams, continuously improving the quality of operations while reducing the cost of delivery, and creating the monitoring tools for programs reaching millions of people.
