Resilience Rooted in Wisdom

Inspired by the legacies of Mother Teresa and my grandmother, Mary L. Khanyile, I embraced resilience and determination. My grandmother's teachings instilled discipline and the value of seizing opportunities early in life. Hindered in my educational pursuit, I discovered patience through setbacks. Eventually, a #Fulbright sponsorship opened doors to my PhD at Tulane University. Leaving secure employment for contractual work was daunting, but it taught me the essence of embracing change and taking calculated risks. Now armed with a PhD, I impart my Public Health expertise, echoing Mother Teresa's selflessness and my grandmother's wisdom, emphasizing the importance of adapting to life's transformations.
