In three words, I would describe my total Ashesi experience as fascinating, challenging, and enjoyable. I was curious at every step of my existence in Ashesi since each level had its own unique set of adventures. It was also challenging sometimes as it was a little bit difficult to balance academics with other obligations. Also, the tragic incidence of the pandemic was a life-changing experience that required me to adapt to a new way of learning and living. Ultimately, my experience at Ashesi was a fun one, since I spent most of my enjoyable moments with my Ashesi friends. 

For my next stage in life, I plan to undertake my national service to obtain more field experience to assist me in deciding which master’s degree to pursue. I plan on obtaining a few online certificates and studying a few subjects in the non-engineering area, probably in business investing, before starting national service. 

These great experiences at Ashesi would not have been a reality without support from the Jim Ovia Scholarship Foundation. The great support during my stay at Ashesi has been overwhelming. Words cannot describe how grateful I am to this foundation. I promise to make this investment worth it and pay it forward. Thank you for this support.
