I have spent 8 years at Opportunity International UK leading impactful projects in Rwanda and Uganda, empowering our rural clients to establish sustainable livelihoods and enabling them to build economic security.
Prior to Opportunity, I led a global women's rights organisation and championed initiatives focused on improving women's labor rights in East Africa. I've also worked in business as a project manager in the Gulf.
Outside of work, I really enjoy walking and travelling.
