About

I am an agricultural specialist dedicated to strengthening food security and optimizing crop yields for vulnerable farming communities across Somaliland. Over the past three years, I have supported international development partners by delivering farmer field trainings, promoting resilient agronomic practices, and supervising sustainable crop management systems. I coordinate directly with local producers to transfer practical technical skills and implement strategies that significantly reduce post-harvest losses. I am now seeking to apply my field-tested agronomy and extension expertise to drive impactful results within large-scale rural livelihood programs.
