I am a results-oriented finance professional with over ten years of experience in financial management, budgeting, and compliance within international organizations. I hold a Masters of science degree in finance, Bachelors of Commerce degree, CPA-K certification and advanced training in data analytics through Google Data Analytics, which has equipped me with expertise in tools such as SAP, Quantum, Tableau, and Advanced Excel. I specialize in IPSAS, IFRS, and GAAP-compliant financial reporting, resource optimization, and strategic planning.
As a Corporate Accountant at the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), I successfully managed multi-million-dollar budgets, streamlined financial processes, and coordinated audits that resulted in unqualified reports. My contributions led to significant cost savings, improved operational efficiency, and strengthened compliance with donor-funded project guidelines. In addition, I have mentored and trained teams on financial systems and reporting, fostering a culture of accountability and excellence.
Beyond finance expertise, I am an innovator and problem-solver. I hold a Kenyan patent for my invention, Torque Cuff and Collar Links, a creative solution in the accessories space that demonstrates my ingenuity and dedication to practical innovation.
I am now seeking a role where he can apply my technical expertise, leadership, and strategic thinking to deliver impactful results in financial oversight, compliance, and organizational growth.
