With over 15 years in Ethiopian natural resource management program leadership, I have expertise in evidence-based planning and execution at all levels. My roles have included program design, project management, and oversight in financial operations and human resources, emphasizing integrity and compliance. I have built partnerships with government entities and organizations like FAO and IFAD, focusing on resource mobilization and collaboration. Currently, I am a Senior Researcher at the Amhara Agricultural Research Institute and Editor for the Blue Nile Journal of Agricultural Research, where I enhance performance monitoring and institutional capacity. With a Ph.D. in Soil and Natural Technology from BOKU University, my research on soil erosion is published in leading journals, and I review articles for various publishers. My strengths lie in managing change and fostering growth through emotional and institutional intelligence.
