Meet Gisele: Building the future of waste management

Before

While still in high school, she began exploring technology and entrepreneurship.

Decision and During

That curiosity eventually led her to create Cheemba, a smart waste management solution designed to improve waste collection systems while celebrating Rwanda’s cultural identity.
Through Founder’s Academy and AiCE, she strengthened both her technical skills and entrepreneurial mindset, learning how to develop and validate her idea.

After

Today, she works as a Change Delivery Intern at AC Mobility, while continuing to build Cheemba step by step.
Her journey shows what happens when curiosity meets opportunity early.
