Description

Prounouns: (she/her/hers) I am a black African female, aged 21. I am a Zambian citizen who is a medical student at the Copperbelt University School of Medicine. I am an Ambivert who finds great satisfaction in working with passionate individuals and in a safe space. I like to think of myself as one who would try by all means to create a safe space that can accommodate every individual in order to achieve a target at hand. I enjoy working in a team. I am a flexible individual and a quick learner who is good at time management and resilient. In my free time, I offer services that include braiding hair, volunteering to help with community activities and offering one on one tutoring services for children with reading, speaking and memory difficulties. I love reading mystery and fantasy novels, watching action or drama movies. What I like to do when I am stressed is paint, listen to music or journal. I am able to speak English and the Zambian local language: Ichibemba and now currently pursuing to learn French. I am a guitar player and singer. I believe in the quote "music is the soundtrack of your life," because individuals go through different phases in life and hence with change comes different taste in music. I find cooking for other people in need of food especially street kids satisfying. I am a compassionate person who finds it easy to have conversations with a wide range of age groups and gets along with people easily. I believe in the quote, “It Doesn’t Matter Where You Came From. All That Matters Is Where You Are Going.”- Brian Tracy
