I am a Development Finance
& Programme Delivery Leader

I design and structure capital solutions that reach the businesses, communities and markets most often excluded from mainstream finance. This includes blended finance facilities, guarantee mechanisms, and catalytic funding structures that de-risk private investment and expand access to productive credit — particularly for women-led MSMEs, smallholder farmers, and informal traders.

I work at the intersection of trade policy, market systems and enterprise development — helping build the conditions for inclusive, competitive markets. I support AfCFTA implementation by strengthening cross-border trade infrastructure, reducing barriers for small traders and connecting value chain actors to broader markets.

I design programmes that strengthen agri and fisheries value chains — from production to market — with a focus on financing, inclusion and resilience. My work integrates financial solutions with cold chain systems, aggregation models and trade infrastructure to reduce post-harvest losses and improve livelihoods for women and youth in fisheries and agri sectors.

I integrate climate considerations into financial and market systems — not as an add-on, but as a core design principle. I develop climate-smart financial products that improve income stability and risk resilience for farmers and enterprises, and support institutions in embedding green finance into their lending and investment strategies.
