Areas of Research

As a highly motivated and results orientated manager with exposure to environmental and educational organisations, I have proven record of accomplishments in providing immediate and strategic value to articulate and drive the internal and external communications strategies and initiatives to facilitate the achievement of organizational objectives and protect its interests, resulting in the creation of a positive image of the organisation. Having been educated in excellent grade institutions in the UK and USA, I have developed a sense of environmentally- focused corporate responsibility that has led to contributing effectively to socially responsible activities liaising with various divisions, formulating media reports and participating in project meetings. Utilising excellent communication skills, I have developed and maintained successful working relationships with both internal and external stakeholders.
