I have been a lifeguard for several years at public beaches and hotels in Rwanda, where I developed strong swimming skills and water rescue techniques.
I am highly trained in various swimming strokes, endurance swimming, and underwater navigation.
My experience includes responding to emergencies quickly and effectively, ensuring the safety of swimmers, and providing first aid when needed. This role has strengthened my ability to remain calm under pressure and make quick decisions to protect lives.
