Most of all, I learned how to leverage technology in public health. I’m leaving D-tree confident and inspired to keep building a career in digital health 🚀

My internship also helped me grow professionally:

🗣 Improved communication & coordination
🌐 Joined the forum for women & girls in digital health (Tanzania)
📊 Learned how apps connect to the Unified Community System (UCS)

What I worked on in the past months:

✅ Ensured health workers had airtime & internet to sync data
✅ Trained on app use + created user guides & videos
✅ Documented project milestones & shared success stories
✅ Represented D-tree at conferences

So why D-tree? 3 things motivated me to apply:

🧒🏽 My passion for improving children’s health
📱 Curiosity about using tech to improve service delivery
🔢 Eagerness to learn how real-time data can inform decisions

Before joining D-tree, I worked on different health & nutrition projects with several organizations. I saw the real impact that preventive care can make.

But along the way, I realized something: as a doctor, I’d mostly treat people after they’re sick.

What I wanted was to prevent illness—especially among children—so they can survive, thrive, and live out their dreams.

My journey into health started with a childhood shaped by lots of illness and school absenteeism. Despite that, I performed well academically and always dreamed of becoming a doctor.
