As a certified Prosthetist Orthotist, licensed by the Medical Council of Tanganyika (MCT) and internationally certified by the International Society for Prosthetics and Orthotics (ISPO), I have spent over 5 years delivering mobility solutions to under-served communities. I am a proud member of the Association of Prosthetists and Orthotists of Tanzania (APOT), and my work spans clinical care, humanitarian initiatives, technology training, and innovation in prosthetic production. From pioneering the use of 3D printing to training peers across East Africa, my mission is to expand access to high-quality, affordable prosthetic and orthotic services in Tanzania and beyond.
