Professional Experience:

With a robust background in technology and finance, I bring a diverse skill set and extensive experience in driving operational improvements and managing complex projects. I hold a Master’s degree in Cybersecurity and Data Governance and have developed expertise in API management, cybersecurity, data governance, and financial analysis.

Currently, I serve as the Implementation Manager and Platform Solutions Manager at wefox in Berlin, where I develop and implement platform solutions to enhance integration capabilities and streamline business processes. My responsibilities include conducting platform performance analyses, providing strategic recommendations, and managing the lifecycle of platform solutions. I have successfully led the development and market introduction of multiple insurance products, significantly improving operational efficiency and customer engagement.

Previously, as a Monitoring and Release Manager at Klarna Bank AB, I oversaw the release process through the risk assessment system 'Provenir', managed cross-company cooperation, and created programs to enhance the release process. My notable achievement includes developing a program that improved the efficiency and productivity of the internal release tool by analyzing data and identifying trends.

In my role as a Financial Analyst at Lemco Insurance Agency, I was responsible for preparing comprehensive financial reports, ensuring compliance with statutory regulations, and conducting rigorous cash flow analysis. I implemented strategies that reduced the company's annual tax liability and introduced a cash management protocol that increased the efficiency of working capital deployment.

During my internship at the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), I curated and disseminated high-impact weekly contribution reports, performed in-depth client deposit analysis, and reconciled a diverse portfolio of grants and receivables. My efforts improved the quality and timeliness of funding allocation reports and enhanced donor relationships, resulting in increased recurring contributions.

My technical skills include proficiency in Restful APIs, HTML/CSS/JavaScript, Python, Node.js, SQL, Git, and various monitoring tools like Kibana. I am adept at data analysis, statistical modeling, and programming, enabling me to design and optimize scalable solutions for complex operational challenges. My strong communication and management skills have been critical in presenting project goals, progress, and outcomes to both internal and external stakeholders.

I am fluent in English and Swahili and have a basic knowledge of German. My hobbies include singing and hiking, which help me maintain a balanced and creative approach to problem-solving.

I am passionate about leveraging technology to create meaningful change and am eager to contribute my skills and experience to a dynamic and innovative environment. My career reflects a commitment to excellence, continuous learning, and a proactive approach to tackling challenges, making me ideally positioned to add value in roles that demand a diverse technical skill set and analytical prowess.
