You may know her today as a social media influencer, owing to the content she shares on Instagram on marriage, motherhood, self-love, and faith. But before all this, Erica Mbanda’s career was on a paediatric path.
Born and raised in the US, Mbanda, a mother of two was pursuing a psychology and sociology major at the university, which she intended to use as a stepping stone to being a paediatrician. However, that was halted three years in, to chase something she was more passionate about.
Her zeal to address and find solutions to women’s issues inspired her to pursue a Master’s in counselling. And in 2014, after Mbanda completed her studies, she returned to Rwanda.
Initially, the plan was to try to establish a life in her homeland for two years, and if that didn’t work out, it was back to America. But she fell in love with the country and decided to stay.
