My academic journey has been a meaningful pursuit of knowledge and growth. I began by obtaining a B.Ed. in Chemistry from the University of Cape Coast (2003-2007). Continuing my education, I earned an MPhil in Science Education at the University of Education, Winneba (2009-2012) and a Certificate in Business Administration from the Ghana Institute of Management and Public Administration (2010-2011), driven by my desire for well-rounded development. Currently back at university of cape coast with an on-going Ph.D. In Science Education.
