About Me

I am a motivated and curious student with a strong interest in medicine. My interest in healthcare has grown through my passion for life sciences,specifically the anatomy section, and by job shadowing my aunt who is the only neurosurgeon in Mozambique. I am determined to challenge myself even more.
