What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth.

I am a dedicated software engineering intern currently honing my skills at Aikins Educational Consult in Ghana, where I initiated the development of a GRE exam preparation platform. My experience includes optimizing database structures and conducting usability testing to enhance user accessibility. I thrive on challenges and enjoy creating impactful solutions that improve user experiences.

Previously, I served as a Software Developer and Research Assistant at NYUAD, where I led the development of Projoint, a public opinion research tool. My contributions included software migration to a new server, which significantly reduced maintenance costs. My work as a WorkSmart Student Assistant further refined my analytical skills, allowing me to enhance data accuracy and decision-making processes.

In addition to my internships, I have participated in various projects, including a stock price prediction system and a movie recommendation AI, which have strengthened my technical skills in Python, C++, and machine learning. I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve real-world problems and continuously seek opportunities to grow and learn in the field of software engineering.
