Full Profile — Ivy Kinyanjui | Executive Ops, Agile & AI Automation

From economics to operating systems

01I started in economics — a postgraduate degree from Rhodes University — and moved straight into the operational side of organisations, where decisions become schedules, budgets, tenders and deadlines.

02Five years later I've run procurement for a county government, coordinated executive offices across three time zones, and served as Scrum Master for a distributed engineering team shipping Cardano blockchain releases.

03Today I combine that operational grounding with Business AI: I document the process first, then automate the parts that shouldn't need a human.
