A highly competent, motivated and hardworking person with strong bias in general management, research, project management, data and or information analysis and teaching or training. My goal is to become a competent project manager, researcher and general manager. Currently out of work due to return from Namibia where the government did not consider renewing my work visa. I am looking for the right opportunity to bring my expertise to an organization or company that needs a competent general manager, project manager, researcher, data analyst and Trainer. I take learning seriously now than ever and I have already applied to UMI (Uganda Management Institute) to pursue a post graduate diploma in project management and planning on the weekend basis.
