      My primary area of study is Neglected Tropical Diseases (NTD), and I employ computational methods to identify natural substances that are the most likely inhibitors of the most important parasite protein targets. These inhibitors may eventually be transformed into therapeutic medications. My current area of expertise is hookworm. Machine learning techniques that forecast the most likely inhibitors are a contribution to my study.

    • Mathematics Teacher
      • Aug 2019 - Apr 2021

      I taught two students, a final year SHS student all elective science courses. Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Elective Math through zoom and a 9 year old mathematics at home for about 5 months which brought great results. The 9 year old was not very good at math and didn’t like it quite well. I had to make it easier and make math be understood as something we do in our everyday lives. I had great results.

      As an engineer with the engineering department, I am responsible for making sure all out radio stations were up to work everyday. I recorded every show on all 4 radio stations(Adom Fm, Joy Fm, Hitz Fm and Asempa Fm) on our computer from the “engine room”. I was responsible for assessing the state of all studio equipments every morning and reported any faults to my boss and took feedbacks from radio hosts throughout the course of the day to make sure everything went well. I occasionally helped with repairs on studio equipment. I helped remotely setup conference halls for company executives and configured their computers to access the company wifi. I was responsible for providing and editing excerpts of recorded shows to newscasts and news reporters to be used on their shows. Before leaving multimedia, I joined the online news team and agreed to freelance for the station. I was responsible for troubleshooting computers and fixing both hardware and software problems for company workers. Show less
