I am Zintle Sidondi, also known as “Zee”. I am a Clinical Nurse Practitioner by profession and I recently obtained my Health Service Management certificate for the year "2024". Previously, I worked for the Khayelitsha District Hospital for around 9 years, of which the last 8 years were spent in a paediatric ward. In 2022, while enrolled in a Primary Health Care degree at CPUT, I developed an interest for clinical research. Today,  I am proud to say that I recently started working at Vuka Research Clinic as a Research Nurse.

I'm also a wife, mother, and daughter. My family is everything to me, and seeing them happy is my ultimate desire. I enjoy how research has allowed me to spend more time with my family because the hours are less demanding than those in the public sector. I believe that the training I have received in research has helped me grow as a person, and I am excited about what lies ahead.
