About

I am an Agribusiness Project Coordinator with experience coordinating field activities in the Agriculture field from land preparation, planting of crops, taking care of crops in the field, harvesting, postharvest management, and linking farmers to the immediate companies that offtake the agricultural produce as raw material and as national and international markets.

I also have experience in using social media platforms for marting services and products which has helped me train over 2000 rural youth and women across the country to set market their products on services on digital platforms.
