As a beneficiary of such opportunities, I am deeply committed to giving back to society.

Throughout the years, I have played a key role in generating over $100 million in funding for organizations across Africa, Asia, South America, and North America. This has been achieved primarily through strategic partnerships with foundations and federal/state departments. I have worked on grants from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, CNCS (AmeriCorps), USAID, CDC, NIH, and PEPFAR. Additionally, I have scaled three newly formed 501(c)(3) nonprofit organizations to self-sustaining entities, covering finance and accounting, HR, IT, operations, business development, regulatory compliance, and team development.
