Profile

I am a Public Health Specialist with rich experience in health services management and public health policy. Also, as a researcher and a tutor of the School of Public Health of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, I have acquired enough experience in mentoring and supervising students through to the completion of their theses. I am well versed in the basic principles of public health including health services management and health systems research as well as training in research methods. Prior to joining the University in 2013, I was the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Aniniwah Medical Centre, a 100-bed private hospital in Kumasi, Ghana. As a CEO, I coordinated several community-based interventions to improve health outcomes in deprived and hardest-to-reach communities with local and international organizations such Ghana AIDS Commission, USAID, DANIDA, UNICEF, CRS, World Vision Ghana, etc in the area of HIV/AIDS, child survival, Nutrition, Health care Financing, Non-communicable diseases, etc. As I initiated already, I hope to continue nurturing and mentoring students of public health with my diverse experience and making possible the policy of health for all achievable.
