View Profile

I am an entrepreneur and social innovator passionate about leveraging education as an ideal tool for positive social change. I love teaching and I'm joining Schoolhouse to share the knowledge I've acquired throughout my life, and also to learn from the amazing students that join the program. Additionally, I intend to navigate the disparity between Western education and the generic nature of Ghanaian education, especially in rural regions, to better reform the construct. This is a life-changing opportunity for me and I look forward to making the best of it.
