Journalist and radio personality with experience working with international NGOs and conducting research in West Africa and East Asia. I recently graduated from Indiana University with a Bachelor’s degree in African Studies and History with honors. While at IU, I wrote two honors theses entitled, "The Tro-Tro: An Ethnography of the Lorry in Contemporary Ghana" and "African Agency on Paper" based on two years of my fieldwork and archival research on transportation and petition writing in Ghana. I also served as the Music Director for the WIUX radio station, wrote for the Indiana Daily Student Newspaper, and volunteered with three African NGOs: Touch a Life Orphanage, Mawuvio's Outreach Programme, and Giving Back to Africa. I am currently looking for a full-time position working with an international NGO, conducting research, or writing/reporting for a newspaper or radio station.
