Summary

Results-oriented Monitoring and Evaluation professional with a strong background in education and child-centred community engagement. As a teacher, I developed interpersonal and communication skills, building trust with families and engaging children on sensitive topics.

M&E experience includes robust data collection and analysis using mobile tools, along with reporting and tracking impact to ensure accountability, and meaningful remediation.

A significant achievement was my advocacy through radio, which led to a 40% reduction in school dropout rates by identifying at-risk girls and children in my community, and coordinating tailored family support. This achievement showcases a distinctive combination of empathetic, community-focused engagement, and a rigorous, data-driven approach to achieving measurable and positive change.
