Bizuayehu Yegazu Wonde

My name is Bizuayehue Yegazu Wonde. I was born in 1984 in a small rural village called Abayota, located in Naga Hawi Kebele, Nunu Kumba Woreda, East Wollega Zone of Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia. I am the son of Yegazu Wonde and Yeshi Guta.

I grew up in a typical countryside environment where, before starting formal education, I supported my family by herding sheep and cattle and fetching water. These early life experiences helped me develop a strong sense of responsibility, discipline, and hard work.

At the age of eight, in 1992, I began my primary education at Wayu Kaba Primary School, where I attended grades 1 to 8. After completing my primary education, I joined Mekonnen Demissie Senior Secondary School in 2001 and attended grades 9 to 12. Upon completing grade 12, I achieved a score of 3.20, which enabled me to join Jimma University in 2002.

At Jimma University, I studied in the Faculty of Business and Economics under the Department of Business Education. I graduated in 2006 with a Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) in Secretarial Science and Office Management.

Driven by a commitment to continuous learning and professional growth, I pursued further education and obtained additional qualifications. I earned a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Sociology from Jimma University, a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Management from Ambo University, and a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Human Resource Management from Addis Ababa University.

I began my professional career in October 2006 as a lecturer at Woliso Polytechnic College. When Ambo University later established a branch in Woliso, I successfully competed for a position and joined the university as a lecturer in the Department of Management under the School of Business and Economics.

For the past nineteen (19) years, I have been serving at Ambo University with dedication, professionalism, and commitment to academic excellence. In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I have also served in administrative roles. I worked as Registrar Head for a total of ten (10) years, where I played a key role in managing and administering student-centered systems.

In this role, I was responsible for overseeing registrar operations, system administration, and directorate functions. I managed student academic records, alumni databases, and password administration within the student information system. I consistently ensured the accuracy, integrity, and confidentiality of academic data and institutional records while facilitating efficient academic service delivery.
