Hi, I’m Nyamisi Peter, an Assistant Lecturer at the University of Dar es Salaam. I served the same position at the University of Dodoma from 2015 to 2022 before I joined the University of Dar es Salaam in 2022.

I am a data scientist and marine biologist focusing on ocean productivity. I am doing programming and coding using different programming languages like R, Python, html, Quarto, css and several other programming languages. I like working with data especially data processing and manipulation, data analysis and visualization using R software.

I graduated my first degree from University of Dar es Salaam with a degree in Aquatic Environmental Sciences and Conservation in 2009. I then joined postgraduate studies at the Institute of Marine Sciences (IMS), Zanzibar, where I earned Master of Science in Marine Sciences degree in 2013. Currently, I am doing my PhD studies in Aquatic Sciences focusing on the effects of global warming on ocean productivity at the University of Dar es Salaam.

Nyamisi Peter, she is a wife, married to Masumbuko Semba. She is also a mother of three kids: Grace, Daniel and Ethan.
