Professional Experience:
I have over fifteen years of experience working as Electoral Specialist dealing with issues related to Electoral Technical Assistance and Elections’ Observations. My years of experience encompass two main organizations but not limited to: the United Nations and the African Union
At the United Nations, I worked for the peacekeeping missions in the following countries: the Republic of Burundi, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Central African Republic. For the African Union, I had the opportunity to perform Electoral consultancies in about ten (10) African countries. I had also had the occasion to perform consultancies for the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) as well as the United Nations Office for Projects Services (UNOPS). In addition, I also worked for a project to evaluate the electoral process in Ivory Coast funded by USAID and led by the Carter Center and EISA
