Following over a decade in high-intensity emergency response, I undertook a strategic sabbatical focused on reflection and targeted professional development. This period was dedicated to deepening my understanding of humanitarian complexities through academic study and acquiring new technical skills in data science to drive more impactful, evidence-based interventions.
- Engaged in strategic career reflection and professional goal-setting after 11 years in demanding frontline and leadership roles.
- Pursued advanced academic studies to deepen theoretical knowledge of humanitarian principles and complex emergencies.
- Completed intensive training in data science and analytics to leverage data for improving the efficiency and impact of future humanitarian efforts.
