BACKGROUND
I grew up in a separate family since year 2001, when our father left, and we have since then lived with our grand parents. My father never supported me, and he passed away in 2019. Our mom has been through a hard time where she had to raise my and my free siblings by herself, since she has had a low income as a tomato seller. I have studied in public schools from primary level up to high school, with helping aid of Good Samaritans contributions. Currently, I'm pursuing a bachelor degree in medicine at the Kilimanjaro Christian Medical University.
MY CHOICE OF STUDIES
I believe that, by becoming a medical doctor, I wouldn't just open doors for myself, but also bring hope to my community. I will contribute by saving people's lives - most likely women and children. Not only saving lives, I would also assist them in taking preventive measures against disease and infection, in order to build a healthy community. Education is a preparation for life, and where there is life, there is hope. I still have a long journey until I can at least say I am prepared for life, but I have great passion and dream towards becoming a medical doctor.
INTERESTS
During the time that I am free from my studies, I often join my peers in prayer and other matters related to my religion. I also like to exchange ideas with different people who are ahead of me and precede me, and to get more clarity about various activities. Moreover, I tend to focus on understanding more on various agricultural activities, especially tomato farming.
