As a PLANS Analyst at Alliance of Bioversity International and CIAT, I lead and manage the finance and administration of the Climate Action programs in Africa and Asia, ensuring alignment with project results, donor regulations, and client expectations. I oversee the implementation of the projects, coordinate with the head office and the climate action team, and maintain the integrity and efficiency of the budgetary, financial, and procurement policies and systems. I have over eight years of experience in finance and admin roles in donor-funded and private sector setups, with proven skills in budgeting and forecasting, financial reporting, project finance and implementation, grants management, operations, GL and audit management. I am also pursuing a Master of Science in Development Finance at Strathmore University, after completing a Bachelor of Commerce in Finance at University of Nairobi and a CPA certification. I am passionate about applying my financial expertise and knowledge to support sustainable development and climate action initiatives.
