Director of the Community Health Services Division, Ministry of Health, Government of Liberia
I was born May 15, 1976 and begin my primary education in 1979. I became a professional health worker when I graduated as a Physician Assistant from the Tubman National Institute of Medical Arts in Liberia in 2009. Over the years, I have serve in many different positions in the health care delivery system in Liberia including both clinical and public health roles. I have benefited from different trainings both locally and internally. My love for community health was stimulated when I lost two of my clients (one HIV/TB co-infection male and a positive HIV pregnant mother) which I strongly believe that they would not have die if only there were Community Health Workers in those remote communities Thereafter, I was promoted as the Community Health Department Director (2012 to 2018) a position which I use to improve the health care system in River Gee and reforming the community health program. Currently I serve as the Director for the Community Health Services Division of the central Ministry of Health and with the passion to achieving greatness, I am of the strongest conviction that with the support of all you, we can build a stronger linkage between the community and the Primary Health Care System with the aim to achieving Universal Health Coverage for all here in Liberia.
