Originally from Benin City, Edo State, Nigeria, I have cultivated my passion for finance and humanitarian efforts over 10 years in the international development sector. As a dedicated member of the finance team here at DRF, I have spent the past three years ensuring the financial stability and integrity of our operations.

Prior to joining DRF, I served as a Project Finance Manager with Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders), where I honed my skills in financial operations management and donor compliance. I hold a BA (Hons) in Accounting and Finance from the University of Hertfordshire and an MSc in Management from the University College London.

Outside of work, you will often find me surrounded by my plants, exploring nature through hiking, experimenting in the kitchen with cooking and baking, or diving into a captivating book. I am also proud to serve as a member of the finance committee at the International Funders for Indigenous Peoples.
