What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Molecular Biology and Biotechnology graduate with a strong passion for research and laboratory work. My academic journey at the University of Cape Coast has equipped me with a solid foundation in microbiological and chemical analysis, data management, and laboratory operations. I have successfully conducted a research project on the microbial diversity of bath towels, showcasing my ability to engage in scientific inquiry and contribute to the field.
During my national service at the Pesticide Residue Analysis Unit of COCOABOD, I conducted chemical analyses to detect pesticide residues in cocoa beans, ensuring compliance with international standards. My experience also includes internships at LEKMA Hospital and Greater Accra Regional Hospital, where I honed my skills in laboratory procedures and data management. I am a strong advocate for gender equality and women’s empowerment, and I possess proven leadership, problem-solving, and collaborative skills that I have developed through various leadership roles in school.
