Personal Profile
I bring expertise in strategic planning, strategy development, policy implementation review, monitoring and evaluation, capacity building, governance, and strategic partnerships. I have participated in high-level policy development processes, bringing global best practices and research-informed perspectives to African decision-making. For example, I helped develop the green paper on National Health Insurance in support of the office of the South African Director General of Health.
I also brings a strong research background to HSEi—he served as a senior bio-behavioral clinical trials manager for the South African Medical Research Council, where he collaborated with several international partners, including Maastricht University. Furthermore, I also spent two years as the Director for the Albertina Sisulu Centre for Global Health and Research at Walter Sisulu University.
I was appointed to the Faculty of Health Sciences at Wits University to assist the dean with international partnerships and strategic government projects, and now co-leads HSEi.
