I chose pharmaceutics because of the many health challenges that I saw while growing up.

BACKGROUND
I grew up in a family of three with a single mother. My elder brother most of the time lived with our grandparents, while my sister and I were home with our peasant mother, studying in local school. She made it a point that we went to school.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
I chose pharmaceutics because of the many health challenges that I saw while growing up. This put a desire in me to be able to help in tackling those challenges for a better community, health wise. I would like to be able to work in a big research institute to exercise my skills and participate in finding better, safer and affordable treatment options to solve the health issues of the population.
INTERESTS
I usually participate in research in the university analytical lab and animal research facility, where I have been inspired by lecturers. That also putting me on top in my class in terms of practical skills.
I also participate in church activities where I am the ministry leader in St. Luke's chapel.
