Biography

I worked as a Teaching Assistant at the KNUST Computer Science Department where I organized tutorial sessions for undergraduate courses in C++ and Pascal Programming. Prior to this, I served as Teaching Assistant at the Ghana-India Kofi Annan Centre of Excellence in ICT. During my course, I held several positions including president of a Christian organization. I organized an outreach programme to a village, where we educated the village on health and social issues, distributed aid to the poor and preached the Gospel. I also co-founded the KNUST Linux Club, a thriving organization where free Linux classes are offered to students. My curiosity about Speech Recognition Systems started when I first tried to use Microsoft Word Speech Recognition System. I resolved to study their underlying theories in order to conduct independent research in this field because of its relevance to the growing IT world. After the MPhil, I hope to pursue a PhD in Cambridge and return to Ghana.
