I come from a middle-class family and losing my father was the most difficult experience in my life. It taught me resilience, patience and the value of education.
I felt proud of myself when I achieved my academic goals through hard work despite financial challenges.
My happiest moments are when I see my efforts bringing hope to my family.
My dream is to become an ophthalmologist. I will achieve this through dedication and discipline.
I will help my family and community in Mandera county, support WEF initiatives and improve access to education and healthcare.
