Development Finance, Resource Mobilization and Impact Management Specialist driving evidence-based decisions, donor accountability, and sustainable change across Africa.
I am a development finance, programs and impact management professional with over eight years of experience leading and supporting multi-country, donor-funded programs across Africa.
My career has focused on building coherence between finance, program delivery, and knowledge management — ensuring that resources translate into measurable, scalable impact. I specialize in grant and portfolio management, resource mobilization, ESG-aligned programming, and financial oversight.
What motivates me is the conviction that finance and knowledge are twin engines of justice and transformation. I thrive in complex, multi-stakeholder environments, supporting leadership teams, foundations, and NGOs to bridge the gap between strategy and execution.
