I grow revenue, partnerships, and operations across telecom and cloud markets.
What I'm looking for
I've led Ghana operations for WIAFREN and now develop new business for Yanolja Cloud Solution, where I identify opportunities, build client relationships, tailor solutions, and close deals. My work has earned Rising Star recognition in Q2 and Q3 of 2025.
Across telecom, digital services, customer support, and entrepreneurship, I've built partnerships with GLO GH, AT GH, and MTN GH; managed budgets and business plans; launched services; and led teams across multiple territories. I bring data-driven decision-making, persuasive communication, operational discipline, and a customer-centric approach to delivering sustainable business results.
