• Favorite Quote or Motto: "As you become an adult, you realize that things around you weren't just always there; people made them happen. But only recently have I started to internalize how much tenacity *everything* requires. That hotel, that park, that railway. The world is a museum of passion projects." ~ John Collision

Our education collaborators are working on programs to implement the app in STEM classrooms and clubs for kids and teens nationally and around the world to learn about how engineering shapes our every day lives. Kids and teens in these programs will be invited to connect with engineers through the app so they can meet and interact with professionals in their fields of interest. Please contact us to learn more about the program and how you can participate.

I am...

a Computer Science & Education Student at the University of Cape Coast in Ghana. Outside curricula activities my interest are Software Engineering, Cloud (AWS) and Project Management

I chose to be a Computer Science Student because...

I have grown up around computers and always loved working around technology. It always seems to come naturally to me and I love learning about it any chance I get. Also, one secret to achieving success is to always love what you do.

I like my job because...

I would be able to solve a lot of problems in the future since most of our daily life activities will involve computers.

I want others to know...

You have to study twice as hard when you are studying something you do not like. It is extra time and energy consuming.

My STEM education has helped me ...

It has helped me because it has given me the impression that I will one day become meaningful in society since I will help solve a lot of problems

This is My Story

I was born and raised in Kumasi, Ghana(Africa). When I was growing computers was not all that common in my community. I was lucky I had one neighbor who had a Pentium 3 desktop computer which was the fastest computer I had seen at that time. I used to visit him every day just to play video games. At times too I will just be going through the computer without knowing what I was doing so it got to a time which I got to know more about the computer than the owner. I realized being around the computer is what I love to do so I should follow my dreams.
