Professional Profile
I attained a Bachelor’s degree from Makerere University in Construction Management in the year
2017. Since then, I have been involved in new and various challenging projects that have left me
with a great ability to build up costs for construction projects, carry out supervision and monitoring
of ongoing works, quality control with great human resource skills in my various roles as a site
administrator and quantity surveyor. Some of the projects I have handled include:
•
•
•
•
Construction of a commercial building on plot 254, Kansanga, Makindye division costing
1.5 billion Uganda Shillings as a qualified site administrator and quantity surveyor.
Construction of apartments on plot 86, block 312, Kalambi Wakiso district costing an
estimate of 50 million Uganda shillings as a qualified Site administrator.
Cost building of a residential house. Plot 4255 block 223, Namugongo Ssebaddu sub

shillings as a site administrator and quantity surveyor intern.
Construction of a Town houses at Graeystone, Muyenga, Bukasa plot 8716, block 244,
Kampala costing an estimated 5 billion Uganda Shillings as an intern site administrator and

Along the way, I decided to pursue my passion of writing concurrently where I have developed
my story telling and development skills, research and creative writing abilities, proofreading and
editing. Because of the administrative skills I attained along the way, I have been able to volunteer
working with Dwelling Places, a Uganda based NGO (Non-Governmental Organization) as a
volunteer administrative Assistant which has further given me the desire and skill to work with
disadvantaged people thus venturing currently into social work as a peer mentor for Trailblazers
Mentoring Foundation, Uganda. I love to work with people, solve problems and plan projects. I
am dependable and have a record of delivering on time.
