I am an accounting graduate with over 30 years of experience across finance, credit management, cooperative governance, logistics, NGO program administration, and agribusiness. My career spans public service, private sector shipping and logistics, SACCO credit management, and board-level leadership in investment and farmer cooperative institutions. In addition to my professional and agribusiness work, I actively engage in freelance writing, transcription, and data entry, providing accurate, reliable, and confidential services to clients. This work has strengthened my attention to detail, discipline, and ability to meet deadlines. I have strong expertise in financial management, loan appraisal and recovery, monitoring and evaluation, and cooperative governance. In recent years, I have focused on agribusiness—particularly dairy farming—as a sustainable income-generating venture rooted in community development. I am known for resilience, integrity, and accountability, and I value transparent leadership and responsible financial stewardship. I am open to opportunities in finance, cooperative management, agribusiness development, freelance support services, NGO programs, and board or advisory roles.
