Message

At SOWEDA, I entered financial data into the Sage Accounting system, maintained accounting records and filing systems, and assisted with account reconciliations. I also completed an internship in computerized accounting at Mental Change Promoters Association.

I managed my family’s bar business finances from 2021 to 2026, including purchasing drinks, paying workers and the landlord, and keeping stock accounts. At Buea Police Credit Union, I volunteered in finance and administration, assisting with routine banking operations, data entry, customer service, reporting, and records reconciliation.

At Pan African Institute for Development – West Africa (PAID-WA), I participated in contract management and field data collection and provided administrative support for training programs. I’m completing an MSc in Accounting and Finance at PAID-WA, following a BSc in Accounting from the University of Buea.
