## Professional Summary {#summary}
I currently lead research data and statistical delivery for Georgetown University gui2de portfolios in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, and Rwanda. My work includes study design, data quality architecture, analysis planning, and publication support. I am strongest where field implementation, analytics engineering, and policy reporting need to work together as one system.
