About

I am a finance and administration professional with over three years of experience driving operational integrity for international non-governmental organizations across Somaliland. I direct end-to-end accounting cycles, including bank reconciliations, payroll administration, and budget tracking, while maintaining strict statutory compliance and rigorous internal controls. By standardizing financial workflows and managing meticulous audit trails, I safeguard donor assets and ensure transparency across complex humanitarian programs. I am now looking to leverage my financial reporting expertise and technical proficiency to drive accountability within a high-impact global mission.
