Professional Profile

A pharmacist with over 10 years of experience in the pharmaceutical sales and marketing sector.

First started working as a promoter in a local importer in Addis Ababa where I learned the basics of the Job and went up to working as a Country Manager in Tanzania. I like meeting people, venturing in to new things and always trying to be the best version of myself.

I am a part of Afrika kommt 11th cohort with the hopes of widening my horizon, sharing knowledge & have intercultural exchange with other African fellows with the same goal of being the next generation of change makers in Africa and beyond.
