Mar 2018 - Oct 2021I coordinated and facilitated the Employability Phasset of Web Development and Digital Media Training organized by Ghana Tech Lab in partnership with HOPin Academy. The project was a life-long, continuous process of acquiring experience, new knowledge—purposeful learning—and skills that contribute to improving one's marketability for enhancing their potential to obtain and maintain employment through various shifts in the labor market. On this project, I worked on getting internship opportunities for 20 trainees after they have been equipped with web development & digital media skills. Through my supervision 3 of the interns had a job offer. Under the same project, with the effort of my team and I, we organized the first-ever Tamale Digital Job Fair, which brought together job seekers and potential employers, and recruitment organizations for networking and opportunity sharing.

Feb 2021 - nowFounder & Principal RealtorHaving gone through some hard times searching for accommodation for a friend in Tamale. I decided to make it easier and hassle-free for others. That's why I founded "Padweb Property Consult," an innovative digital real estate platform that connects tenants and landlords with a hassle-free and secure means of renting and selling properties. Our goal is to provide affordable housing for all low and middle-income families, so every child in Africa can have the best family time with their parents during their upbringing. We believe that affordable housing will be a game-changer and a dream come true. In terms of sustainability, our sister company, AppCyclers, will help us pilot transforming e-waste plastic into 3D building materials to build affordable homes for every parent to give their child the best experience growing up.
