Title: Employee Health Program Manager
Gorilla Doctor Since: 2003
Favorite Part of the Job: When I am able to do laboratory work.
Memorable Moment: We were in the lab processing blood samples during a brucellosis and tuberculosis outbreak. It was rewarding to be in the lab and working together with Dr. Eddy Kambale and Dr. Jacques Iyanya.
Favorite Animal/s (besides gorillas of course): Birds are among my favorite animals because they play a great role as an indicator of biodiversity.
