As a dedicated animal nutritionist and veterinary professional, I bring extensive experience in market development, technical support, and animal health and food safety. My academic background includes a Ph.D. in Animal Science (ongoing), an M.Sc. in Animal Nutrition and Feed Science, and a B.V.M., demonstrating my commitment to advancing knowledge in animal nutrition and health.
My professional roles range from a doctoral researcher at the University of Debrecen to a consultant in livestock feed additives for Camlin Fine Sciences Ltd., and a manager at Cargill-Diamond V. I have successfully enhanced animal production, health, and welfare while ensuring food safety across Africa and the Middle East. Notably, my market development and technical support efforts have led to significant sales growth and brand recognition.
At Vet Care Africa Limited, I prepared technical documents, supported market development, and assisted in product development and registration. My achievements include developing new feed formulations and ensuring compliance with cGMP standards. As an animal nutritionist and lecturer at Zetech University, I taught courses in animal health and production, supervised academic projects, and conducted research assignments.
My community initiatives, such as vaccinating livestock and companion animals against diseases like rabies, highlight my commitment to public health. I actively participate in professional associations, including the British Society of Animal Sciences and the American Society of Animal Science, reflecting my dedication to staying at the forefront of advancements in animal science and nutrition.
I am passionate about driving sustainable improvement in food and nutrition resilience and livelihoods in pastoral zones, aiming to contribute to integrated, evidence-based solutions that enhance food security, animal health, and environmental sustainability.
