Profile Summary

I am a PhD researcher in Accounting and Business Management at Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Ghana, holding an MPhil in Accounting from the University of Ghana (2020). My research specialises in corporate sustainability reporting, ESG disclosure, Digital Financial Accountability, Nonprofit Finance, and corporate governance, with a particular focus on emerging African capital markets. My doctoral and post-MPhil research employs advanced quantitative methods, including panel data regression, quantitative content analysis, Survey development, and econometric robustness testing. I have working knowledge of IFRS Sustainability Disclosure Standards (IFRS S1 and S2), GRI reporting frameworks, and the evolving African sustainability reporting regulatory landscape. Beyond academic research, I have over four years of experience as a Teaching Assistant (TA) and hands-on experience from running business and nonprofit ventures in Ghana since 2020, giving me a practical understanding of financial management, organisational reporting, and stakeholder accountability that complements my academic expertise. I offer freelance services in the following areas: — Academic manuscript editing and proofreading (accounting, finance, sustainability, business management) — Literature review development and systematic review support — Quantitative data analysis (panel regression, Stata, content analysis) — ESG and sustainability reporting advisory — Research proposal writing and hypothesis development — Financial statement analysis and interpretation I am committed to delivering rigorous, well-cited, and publication-ready work. I currently have one peer-reviewed paper under review and a second paper in preparation for submission, both drawn from original panel data research on sustainability reporting among GSE-listed firms.
