Life long learning & growth

I am Kimti

17 January 2021

"I am Kimti from Arusha, I have a deep passion for photography, wildlife and travel. Photography has been self-learning practice until I got the golden opportunity with Nomad and their partners Tawima.


I have currently been on a career break after working 12 years in the banking industry. My role was as a Bank Manager at I&M Bank Arusha Branch. My journey has been a roller coaster ride from cooperate world to finding my purpose in life.


I find myself at my best version around the nature and capturing the moments in the wild. Photography has been something I have always been told I am good at it and my friends would recommend me to take pictures of events. I have done several events wedding, parties, portrait shoot etc.

But I fell in love with wildlife photography during my trip to Serengeti for the first time in 2018. I was lucky to spot a leopard and I captured a fine-looking image of this handsome cat that left me awestruck! Right from there I knew what one thing I love to do is.


I would like to be an inspiration to the women out there to follow their dreams and for the next generation to choose the career path based on their passion.
I am a dreamer and believe nothing is impossible, I see myself to be one of the recognized female travel photographers in Tanzania."
