Agricultural economist and food systems researcher with over ten years of experience in field-based research across East Africa. Before joining the International Livestock Research Institute (ILRI), I worked with the International Institute of Tropical Agriculture (IITA) on projects related to agricultural technology adoption, food security, and sustainable agri-food systems. My expertise includes survey design, field supervision, qualitative and quantitative data collection, and econometric analysis. My current work focuses on waste-to-resource innovations, including Black Soldier Fly technologies for sustainable animal feed and soil health.
