About

I am a dedicated and driven individual with a strong foundation in leadership, mentorship, and academic excellence. My professional journey has been diverse, including roles such as a Teaching Assistant, where I guided first-year university students in subjects like Medical Cell Biology and Life Sciences, helping them build a solid academic foundation. As a leader of the Women in Leadership Community, I honed my organizational and interpersonal skills by facilitating impactful events that empowered students. During the student registration period, I worked as a Student Assistant, ensuring smooth enrollment processes and enhancing my ability to work under pressure in a fast-paced environment. Additionally, as a Brand Ambassador for Vaseline, I developed marketing and communication skills while representing the brand to a diverse audience. My role as a mentor in the First-Year Experience Programme allowed me to support new university students in their transition to academic life, fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment.

I take pride in my achievements, including receiving a Recognition of Leadership certificate for my contributions to student communities and earning Certificates of First Class for my academic performance. These experiences have shaped me into a well-rounded individual with excellent communication, teamwork, and problem-solving skills, driven by a passion for making a positive impact in any environment I am part of.
