I am an approachable, adaptive and enthusiastic young woman, with strong experience in
departments of procurement, operations and business administration. The last five years of my
career have been deeply involved in Logistics and Civil Works industries, whilst living in East
Africa.
Having resigned from my last post, my new vision is to establish a web-based career; helping
individuals and businesses address their administrative and human resource needs by providing
EA/VA services, research, content and web development to further their own success.

Activities
I am an avid reader and writer, and work as a volunteer book reviewer for OnlineBookClub.org. In
addition to this, I maintain my own website where I write about travel, health and fitness. In 2017, I
qualified as a health coach and so enjoy reading articles on new developments in preventative medicine
and nutritional studies.
I am a fitness enthusiast and have completed four half marathons to date. In future, it is my intention to
complete a half Iron Man triathlon in 2019, and to one day complete a marathon on each continent.
I am competent in conversational Tanzanian Kiswahili, and have retained the basics of Japanese
language.
