Born in Tanzania, currently resides in Oklahoma state, U.S.A. My fondest interest is to work with young children. I have always been fascinated with issues that touch children and families' health, growth and development. "A happy childhood is one of the best gifts that adults have in their power to bestow...if you make a child happy today, you will make him/her happy twenty years hence by the memory of it...". My professional life is to make a mark on the children of the world. As for my personal life, I strive not to get stuck in my way; that the way forward is to embrace change - to understand that change is essential to my psychological growth. Change enables me to learn, grow, and I am always moving forward in the direction of my goals, i.e. to reach my full potential. My desire to make a difference in the lives of children has led to the publication of, 'A Clean Kid Is A Healthier Kid', indeed personal as well as professional achievement because it is a result of my long time dream and long time awaited desire which go hand-in-hand with my current professional career, i.e. it is an achievement which enrich children and families.

Accomplishments: As a new writer, I have had two poems published: "TO MY SON", ECHOES OF YESTERTEAR, The International Library of Poetry, 2000 ;"SILENT CRY", FROM THE MOUNTAIN TOP,The International Library of Poetry, 2000 ; and now my first children's book, 'A Clean Book Is A Healthier Kid".I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree, a Post-Diploma-Children's Literature, and currently undertaking the Certificate of Mastery in Early Care Education Administration.

"A Clean Kid Is A Healthier Kid" is an easy-to-read; self-help book for children and parents. The book offers a direct approach to implementation of daily hygienic practices. It explores such practices as caring fot the whole body, from hair to toe. It informs and raises awareness amongst children from very young ages, the importance of cleanliness in the overall goal of having clean and healthy bodies. And how you can use your senses to keep clean and healthy.
