I was born in St. Louis, MO but when I was 6 months old my parents moved back to Ghana where I lived till the age of 16. When I arrived in the USA I knew I was behind educationally. One thing I had lots of was desire and determination to become a medical doctor. Without my tutors I would not have made it. In medical school I volunteered at a GED center in Harrisburg, PA. I realized my first love: "teaching." As a physician you must be able to teach your patients, aspiring medical students and your staff. In 2010 I was appointed an Adjunct Professor at the Uniformed Services University. I was the team lead in Tropical Medicine for the team that went to Ghana. I have a BS in Biology from Lebanon Valley College Annville PA, MD from Penn State College of Medicine Hershey PA, MTM&H from Uniformed Services University and currently a Masters in Project Management student at the University of Maryland, College Park. I love teaching and as a side effect I love learning.
