Aspiring biotechnologist focused on innovative health and environmental solutions.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated biotechnologist with a passion for leveraging biological systems to create innovative solutions that enhance health, agriculture, and environmental sustainability. My academic journey at Sokoine University of Agriculture has equipped me with a solid foundation in biotechnology and laboratory science, allowing me to contribute effectively to various research initiatives.
Throughout my internships at the Kilimanjaro Clinical Research Institute and the Pan Africa Malaria Vector Consortium, I gained hands-on experience in medical research and vector control studies. I collaborated with multidisciplinary teams to analyze data and support clinical trials, which has deepened my understanding of public health challenges and the importance of ethical research practices. Currently, I serve as a laboratory assistant at George Maya Specialized Health Center, where I continue to hone my laboratory skills and contribute to scientific advancements.
