About

Iam a PhD student at University of Texas. My home country is Zimbabwe and I live in Melissa Texas, with my sweet and beautiful wife Ronah.

My interest is in African countries developing post colonial educational systems and curriculums that are responsive and relevant to their needs as independent states.
