I am an MSc-qualified Veterinary Laboratory Specialist with over six years of experience directing animal health surveillance and livestock quarantine diagnostics in Somaliland. My expertise integrates clinical sample testing and strict biosecurity compliance with a background in laboratory management and logistics operations. I have maintained rigorous quality control standards across complex diagnostic procedures while coordinating cross-functional teams to ensure the integrity of regional livestock safety. I am now seeking a senior diagnostic or biosecurity role where I can apply my technical leadership to strengthen animal health protocols and large-scale disease prevention initiatives.
