What I'm looking for

I'm looking to grow my work in digital transformation, analytics, and data systems for health and research organizations, helping turn data into insight that informs policy and improves lives.

I'm building an independent digital transformation and analytics consulting practice for health and research organizations in Ghana and West Africa, offering data maturity assessments, dashboard implementation, and data systems support.

At the Ghana National Commission for UNESCO, I deployed a QR code-based attendance system with a Google Forms capture layer, automated Google Sheets backend, and a three-page Power BI dashboard. I also produced an ESD 2030 mid-term evaluation and analyzed Ghanaian education indicators in R to identify regional trends and data gaps.

My research work spans hospital health-screening data, adolescent pregnancy research, radiogenomics for glioblastoma diagnosis, and NLP-based prediction of Supreme Court decisions. I bring statistical analysis, machine learning, research design, and data storytelling to work that informs policy and improves lives.
