A governance and M&E expert with a background in financial and sociological economics, I have more than 30 years of experience in programme management, policy development and M&E in a variety of fields including research, review and assessment in the areas of public administration reform, justice & home affairs, finance, regional development, as well as sectoral restructuring.
My professional experience covering 30 years has been gained in developing economies and economies in transition in Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle East, for a large number of international bi- and multilateral organizations, including DfID, Dutch Development Cooperation, EU, FAO, IFC, GIZ, Norwegian Aid and UNDP.
I have more than 15 years of M&E experience encompasses both leading M&E assignments in the field and the development of M&E systems. A specialty concerns the identification and formulation of key performance indicators, including researching baseline data and the framing of benchmarks. I am fully conversant with project cycle management methodology, as well the latest development in M&E, including results-chain and theory-of-change.
I have highly developed interview skills gained in a variety of cultural settings, which combined with outstanding documentation review and statistical skills, are honed to arrive at sophisticated analytical results. I know how to deliver high-quality, user-friendly M&E reports, which effectively collocate and present the contributions and findings of professionals with widely varying backgrounds and fields of expertise.
