Who I am
I am a Risk Economist and Macro-financial expert with over eight years of combined experience spanning macroeconomic research, investment strategy, and insurance risk management. I operate at the intersection of economic analysis, financial risk, and claims analytics, helping organizations navigate uncertainty, strengthen balance-sheet resilience, and improve risk-informed decision-making.
My expertise includes macroeconomic forecasting, sovereign and macro-financial risk, claims portfolio analytics, reserve adequacy evaluation, and loss modelling. I am highly proficient in Advanced Excel, Power BI, Tableau, and Python, and skilled at translating complex economic and actuarial insights into actionable strategies that enhance underwriting discipline, capital allocation, and business continuity.
I have deep exposure to emerging and frontier markets, with particular focus on Sub-Saharan Africa. Over several years, I have produced macroeconomic research and investment insights covering African equities, fixed income, FX, and commodities for global investors. My work frequently examines data reliability, FX distortions, informal economies, and how geopolitical and institutional forces shape economic measurement and market pricing. I also have experience engaging media across broadcast, print, digital, and social platforms, and have provided commentary on both local and international business and economic developments.
Beyond my professional work, I am passionate about human capital development and economic education. I periodically teach economics at the senior secondary level and mentor individuals seeking to align their skills with meaningful career opportunities.
