About Me
My name is Irene Namutebi. I am currently a HR Assistant volunteer at SkilledUp Life.

I’m a financial services professional with 4 years working experience in back-office operations and I am a recently certified Virtual Assistant via the ALX Africa VA Programme. I’m looking to volunteer in the tech startup space to gain more experience.
