What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters community health improvement and offers growth opportunities.

I am a dedicated university student pursuing a Bachelor's degree in Community Health and Development at the Catholic University of Eastern Africa. My academic journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in health outcomes and community engagement, which I am eager to apply in real-world settings. I successfully defended my undergraduate program on March 18, 2025, and I am now preparing to submit my final documents for graduation.

Throughout my studies, I have gained valuable experience working with various organizations, including BOY WITH A BALL - Fikisha Organization, where I provided curriculum-based life skills training and engaged with youth in informal settlements. My role as a Community Rehabilitation Worker at Bosco Boy's Rehabilitation Center allowed me to collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to support patients' recovery. I am passionate about using my skills to contribute to community health initiatives and improve the quality of life for individuals in need.
