Share a little about your professional background.

I am an actuarial scientist with a strong research background, having spent over 5 years in Kenya's rural, peri urban, and informal settlements analyzing, tracking, and managing data on sexual and reproductive health rights (SRHR), gender-based violence (GBV), education, and livelihoods programs. Previously, I led research teams in two counties for the World Bank's last mile connectivity evaluation project, NIERA's impact evaluation, Dot Kenya's supervisory role in three counties, and was a key trainer for the government's KYEOP program.
