About

I am a creative and detail-oriented media entrepreneur focused on delivering cinematic event coverage, corporate branding, and compelling video productions. As the founder of Cornel Media, I lead projects from concept to delivery, directing teams, coordinating equipment, and ensuring top-tier visuals for weddings, corporate events, and multi-day shoots across Ghana.

With a background in Computer Science & Engineering, I blend technical precision with storytelling to create content that performs. I excel at budgeting, multi-camera setups, drone work, and building a strong digital presence for clients through strategic branding and accessible access via branded QR codes and a robust online portfolio.
