What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to contribute to community health initiatives while fostering my professional growth in a supportive and innovative environment.

I am a dedicated and detail-oriented Public Health graduate with a strong foundation in research, epidemiology, health promotion, and public health policy. My education at Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology has equipped me with versatile skills in communication, graphic design, and entrepreneurship. I have hands-on experience in community outreach and health promotion, which has fueled my passion for advancing public health initiatives.

During my internships, I conducted sanitary inspections and provided health education on cholera prevention, showcasing my ability to apply public health principles in both urban and rural settings. I have also led workshops on nutrition and chronic disease prevention as a Volunteer Health Educator, demonstrating my commitment to community engagement and health awareness. I am eager to apply and grow my skills in a dynamic, multidisciplinary setting.
