BACKGROUND
I completed primary education at Mango Primary School (Government School) in 2010 and joined Okaoni Secondary School (Government Day School) and became best outstanding student in Academics with GPA of 3.3. In 2015 my family financial status was not good, so I failed to continue and skipped one year and then started in my Advanced Level studies in 2016 at Weruweru Girls Secondary School (Government School in Kilimanjaro) with Combination of Physics, Chemistry and Biology (PCB) and finished this level with Division I:9 and got selected to Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University College (KCMUCo) for pursuing Bachelor of Science in Medical Laboratory.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
In 2014, I got sick and went to one of the health centers that is found in Kibosho-Kilimanjaro. I met the doctor who ordered some investigations including urine and blood culture. As I reached the laboratory where they collect samples there was a very long line of people waiting to give their blood sample. So I realised how efficiency of health delivery was delayed by investigation sessions. From that time, the feeling of becoming Laboratory Scientist started burning in my heart. Thanks to God I am now pursuing it. I am passionate about being a flying Health Laboratory Researcher to reach every corner of the world, even the remote areas. My dream is to invest in diagnostic research that will enable availability of easy and accessible tools and techniques in reaching the same diagnoses.
INTERESTS
I am highly interested in Information Technology activities especially graphics and designing and I have a dream to integrate this in my profession.
