About

Operations professional with an electrical engineering background and hands-on experience running day-to-day operations in the energy and engineering sector. I am the Chief of Staff at OHM Energy Solutions and the Project Manager at Ejoma Africa, where I manage vendors, run many projects across electrical, mechanical and welding work, and supervise field teams to keep work on schedule. I understand that good operations depend on people, so I work hard at building strong relationships with vendors, team members and partners.

I also work with the CEO of Ejoma Africa Group across three organizations, keeping departments aligned and priorities on track. Before this, I worked in gas plant operations and technical services, and I have strong experience in reporting and data analysis. I am organized, I follow up until the work is done, and I organized when many things are happening at once.
