Currently am a Computer Science Lecturer at Valley View University, Oyibi, Ghana. I have been in academia for more than ten years starting as a teaching assistant and rising through the ranks. I graduated from Andrews University in the USA with an MS in Software Engineering. I am passionate about research that uses CS and Technology to solve real-world social problems and needs, especially in education.

I am currently a member of the IEEE P7000 WG, a group working on a process model to address ethical issues in system designs and IEEE P7011 WG, a group working on a process to rate and identify trustworthiness in news sources. Contact me if you are interested to know other projects I am currently working on or if you are interested in collaborating on other projects."      "MS Software Engineering, 2012
