About
I am an experienced field enumerator with more than three years of working in cocoa-growing communities across Ashanti, Eastern, Ahafo, and Western North. My work has mainly focused on collecting accurate farm and household data, engaging farmers, and supporting research projects on child labour, education, and farm practices. I am comfortable using digital tools for data collection and reporting and enjoy working directly with farmers and community groups.
I am hardworking, adaptable, and willing to travel extensively to support project goals.
