I want to get involved in entrepreneurship and to introduce an Aquaponics project in my country so as to control soil born diseases.
BACKGROUND
I was born in 1989 at Kyela district in Mbeya Region. I am the third born out of four children in a peasant, single-parent family. My siblings and me were been brought up by our mother alone since my father passed away in 1992 when I was only three years old. I am a hard-working, cooperative and ambitious person. I am helpful and courageous as well as a person with a strong attitude who always accepts constructive criticism.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
My dream is to become an agricultural engineer who designs irrigation schemes. I also want to get involved in entrepreneurship and to introduce an Aquaponics project in my country so as to control soil born diseases. I have been facing a lot of challenges during my studies including failure to pay the tuition fees in time. Because of this I have not been able to do the exams as per the timetable and sometimes I have not been able to attend the first classes after the opening of a new semester.
INTERESTS
In my spare time I like to read books related to agriculture and entrepreneurship, visit and counsel a women association group and to involve in sports and games especially netball and athletics. I also like baking cakes to sell in the market.
