Profile
I graduated from Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology with a First-Class Bachelor of Science degree in Building Technology. Prior to my degree, I completed a Hardware and Networking Professional (HNQP) and a Microsoft Certified Professional (MCP) certification program and studied various programming languages. I have a Master of Science degree (with Distinction) and a PhD in Construction Project Management from Loughborough University and I am a Fellow of The Higher Education Academy.
I have previously worked with diverse teams in managing Information Technology Systems and Construction Projects and as a Quantity Surveyor on local and international projects. I am currently researching in the areas of Information Resilience (Socio-technical systems) and Inclusion in the Built Environment. Within the school, I am the Construction Management co-group lead and the Equity Diversity and Inclusion co-director (maternity cover).
