My name is Esther Onyoni. I was born and grew up in Kisii, Kenya. After high school in 1997, I came to the United States and went on to college at University of North Carolina at Charlotte.  

I got my undergraduate degree in Chemistry in 2002. I then joined the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where I’m currently a 4^th year Pharmacy student. At Chapel Hill, I was a member and the webmaster in the Student National pharmaceutical Association and a member of CAPS.

Once introduced to the Pharmacists for Africa organization, I knew I had found the organization that I truly belong in. I am the representative of the women’s health education center in the Tafarki Foundation Health Resource Center. I am also the representative of the East African region which I’m glad to serve.
