What I'm looking for

I'm looking to contribute to public health, health promotion, monitoring and evaluation, or research work where I can strengthen community programs through quality data, stakeholder engagement, and evidence-based interventions.

I'm supporting Ghana Health Service’s Health Promotion Division with health promotion, monitoring, evaluation, and community engagement work. I contribute to HPV and STOP NCD initiatives, cholera and mpox RCCE activities, KAP surveys, stakeholder workshops, and public health reporting.

I've collected, verified, and reported health data across community and facility settings, including work with the Ghana College of Physicians and Surgeons’ Stop NCD Project and the University of Ghana School of Public Health QDAT Project. My work includes KoboCollect extraction, structured questionnaires, stakeholder interviews, focus groups, data-quality checks, vital-sign measurement, health education, and ethical data collection.

At Achimota Hospital, I supported public health initiatives, vaccination campaigns, COVID-19 sample collection, patient monitoring, and epidemiological data analysis. I bring over five years of field experience, a Bachelor of Public Health in Health Promotion, and ongoing MPH studies in Monitoring and Evaluation.
