Responsibilities

I regard myself as a goal-driven young woman, hardworking, compassionate, and determined.

As the Administrator in the Afromontane Research Unit, I am assisting the ARU Director, RVSC Administrator, and postgraduate students with daily administrative duties.

I am also responsible for tasks such as arranging ARU seminars, vehicle bookings, and managing financial entities within the department.

My focus is to maintain the ARU as a whole, and I aspire to ensure that the ARU reaches great heights in mountain research. Moreover, I also strive to increase awareness on mountain research in order to inspire more young Africans to enrol for postgraduate studies.
