I am a strategic grant consultant and founder of Cedar Grants Consulting, with over four years of cross-continental experience supporting mission-driven organisations across England and Nigeria. I bring a rare combination of non-profit grant writing expertise and for-profit grant management experience. I have helped organisations secure over £91,000 in grant funding from trusts and foundations, across sectors including community welfare, health and wellbeing, women's empowerment, youth and mentorship, arts and inclusion, disability, and education. Alongside this, I work in grants management within the medical education industry, supporting the coordination and administration of pharmaceutical and medical education grants and sponsorships across the full lifecycle, from funder submission through to contracting. My BSc in Biomedical Sciences and MSc in Public Health give me genuine scientific and public health literacy, meaning I understand the medical and clinical content involved, not just the administrative process around it. What I offer on Upwork: - Grant writing and proposal development for non-profit and charitable organisations - Grant and sponsorship administration for pharmaceutical, medical education, and corporate clients - Funder research and prospecting across UK, European, and international funders - Grant readiness assessments - Pipeline and deadline management - Application review and editing I use industry tools including Fundin.ai, Charity Excellence Framework, Candid, GrantStation, Grantable, and GEMS, and I bring the same rigour and care to every engagement regardless of sector or size. I hold a BSc in Biomedical Sciences from Queen's University Belfast and a Master's in Public Health from the University of South Wales. If you need a grant consultant who understands both the science and the strategy, across non-profit and for-profit contexts, I would be glad to discuss your project.

Hello there! I'm Khadeeja, a data analyst and researcher with over 6 years of experience in quantitative and qualitative research. I recently completed a Data Science and AI bootcamp, adding Python, SQL, and machine learning to my analytical repertoire. I am proficient in Excel and the MS Office suite. My areas of interest include public health, psychology and mental health, climate change and sustainability. I am open to other areas of work for data related projects and project management. Some data projects I've worked on include: 1. Building an automated dashboard using Google API's with Python to fetch data from Google Sheets, Power Query to automate cleaning and preprocessing, and Excel to create the dashboard. 2. Building a book recommendation system that allows users to upload a picture of a book shelf and get recommendations from available books based on the user's profile. This involved heavy data cleaning, preprocessing, pipelines, computer vision models and a complex recommendation model. I made the app using Python (Numpy, Pandas, SciKit-Learn) on Streamlit. With 3 publications under my belt and another on the way, I have also done extensive research work. This has included: 1. Primary mixed-methods research on the psychology of spirituality and prayer. This was part of my Master's thesis in the UK and was eventually published. 2. Impact evaluation for public health studies. Done under a significant grant, this included collaboration on a massive scale with on-the-ground teams as well as other analysts and transcribers.
