My dream job is to become a hospital pharmacist to help prevent deaths in the village as drug resistance is also prevailing.

BACKGROUND
My father is Mubiru Siraje and my mother is Nankya Saidat. They are residents of the Ntolomwe village in the Butambala district. I have six siblings of which three are girls and three are boys. I am the second born in my family with an elder brother, a sister in secondary school, a brother in primary seven and others in primary. My parents are both peasant farmers. We grow crops for home consumption and sell the surplus for accommodation.
I have studied in public schools and got a partial school bursary at advanced level. After passing my "A" level I joined Mbarara University of Science and Technology.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
I grew up in a village where people died or their conditions worsened because of polypharmacy. People also died because they had no money to pay for the drugs in public hospitals. Because of this I promised myself to study pharmacy so that I can prevent such things from happening by extending my services to the people in need and in the villages. Also I see doing pharmacy as way of getting a job where I can get some money and look after my little sisters and brothers so that they can also get a chance to finish studies. My dream job is to become a hospital pharmacist and upgrade to become a lecturer so I can teach students to become pharmacists. I want people to know we will be there when they have grown old. As a pharmacist I want to discover new drugs that can help treat diseases as drug resistance is so prevailing. I also want to be in a hospital pharmacy to play a role in proper drug use and management.
