Junior Counselor: Blue Herons

Age: 21

Score on MSCE: 15

Where do you want to study? I am hoping to go to Kamuzu College of Nursing in Lilongwe.

How did Camp Sky help you on your MSCE exam? We had lab sessions conducting experiments. That was so fortunate because at my school we did not have labs or equipment, but conducting these experiments gave me the confidence necessary to do well on this part of the exam. Also, the reflection sessions each night at Camp Sky revealed the hidden talents in my group, so that we started to believe more and more in ourselves.

What was your favorite activity during Camp Sky last year? I would say conducting the physical science experiment in titration, because it gave me this feeling that anything is possible if I am given the chance to try.

What is your dream job? As of now, I want to be at the highest level in nursing and obviously, yes become a professor of nursing.

What is a fun fact about you? I like facts like the fact I have a head and I can think. That's a fact. Sometimes we misuse the head, ya know? But I can think positively. Also, I can dance to anything.
