She has since dedicated her life to working with different charity causes around the country as well as working with the Miss Uganda Foundation where she pioneered the project to eradicate Jiggers from the Busoga region of Uganda in 2012.\

Mrs. Sylvia is a marketing and business strategist by profession and runs a private consultancy. She has a background in human resource management and international Business. She is also a Director of the Special Events Talent Africa Group.

Mrs. Sylvia has worked with children living with disabilities, families affected by the HIV pandemic and recently started the Smile With Sly; a project aimed at helping single mothers and young people affected by the Coronavirus pandemic.
