Profile
I am a young Malawian aged 20. I am the first born of a family of two children. Currently i am staying with my mother in Lilongwewhich is the capital city of Malawi.
Iam an outgoing person and am very interested in interaction among my peers in all fields of concern ranging from sports to business. I am very fond and believe in information sharing. I believe know this is the best way of mitigating problems that we are facing in or respective areas but also the information provides space for improvemnt of development endeavours that are/can be undertaken in specific area.
In addition to this i like playing volleyball that is my primary sport and a little foootball. I also enjoy reading and writing. Many of the books that i read are based on communication, leadership and management. This assists me very in planning, organising and executing programs and projects that are impact related especially to young people.

From there I entered the youth organisation that I am currently leading as a president for the Junior steering committee which ran programs for young people at the youth Centre the organisation has for a project. From the junior president I was recruited into the secretariate as an accounts assisstant later on to the adminnistrative assistant a post I have held for a year and a half. Later last year the board of trustees appointed me to be the organisations executive director, a post I am holding to date.
