Bio
2014 to date:Consultant/Trainer- Laboratory Management and Accreditation, Food Safety Systems, Environmental Impact Assessment, Training and workshop organization. Have consulted for COMESA, FAO/International Atomic Energy Agency and EU Cole-ACP on SPS measures Laboratory Quality System and Food Safety matters.
Previously headed a chemical testing laboratory, which was accredited to ISO/IEC 17025 in 2006. It was Re-accredited in June 2011 where the scope of methods was doubled. Analysis included pesticide residues analysis in food and the environment, pesticide formulation analysis, soil and plant tissue nutrient evaluation, fertilizer analysis, heavy metal analysis in food and the environment. Responsibilities included decision making on sampling protocols, contract reviews with clients, preparing work schedules, supervising analysts, cross checking and analyzing data and coordination of method validation.
I oversaw the preparation of equipment specifications,procurement of the appropriate laboratory utilities and the day to day performance of the equipment. I acted for the General Manger Quality Assurance in his absence. I was involved in accessing the WTO/SPS and WTO/TBT notifications, evaluating them and advising stakeholders accordingly. I was a component leader in the project “Horticultural Produce Phytosanitary Certification and Quality Assurance” (Horticap) funded by the European Union which ran up to 2010. During the final evaluation of the project, KEPHIS scored over 80%.
I previously coordinated PIP-COLEACP-supported laboratory analysis work and coordinated a field Pre-harvest Interval Trial by the same sponsor in 2012/2013.
I oversaw Food safety issues and was a team member working on a National Food Safety Policy and Implementation strategy.
I was the Laboratory Cluster contact person for the EDES-COLEACP project and coordinated the practical based laboratory training in Kenya for the same program.
