About

I am a dedicated Biological Science graduate from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Kumasi. I have hands-on experience in laboratory work, data analysis, and research, including a final-year project on food-borne illnesses caused by food protozoans. I have completed clinical internships at diagnostic laboratories and gained administrative and customer service experience in business settings. I am passionate about applying scientific knowledge to support healthcare delivery, research, and science education. I thrive in dynamic teams and am eager to contribute to laboratory operations, health organizations, or educational programs while continuing to develop professionally.

I am detail-oriented, with strong organizational and communication skills, and I enjoy learning new techniques, technologies, and data-driven approaches to improve healthcare outcomes and scientific understanding.
