My journey in the field of business management began with a deep fascination for the
dynamics of entrepreneurship and management. Having completed my high school majoring
in Business Management in 2014, I was drawn to the intricate world of business. As my
academic path unfolded, I knew I wanted to dive deeper into this realm, and that led me to
complete my bachelor's degree in Management at the University of Cape Coast in 2020. This
educational foundation ignited my curiosity, which was further stoked by a pivotal role as an
Assistant Business Analyst at the National Entrepreneurship and Innovation Programmes
(NEIP). It was during this experience that I realized my undeniable love for the field of business
analytics. This realization has brought me to the point where I am eager to expand my
knowledge and skills in this domain by pursuing an MSc in Business Analytics at the University
of Northampton, UK, starting in September 2024.
My journey through the corporate world has been diverse and enlightening. I have held
positions ranging from Sales and Marketing Director at Dace Art Studio to HR and Project
Manager at KF Markets and eventually Managing Director at 11:59 Meals. These experiences
have instilled in me a strong sense of business acumen and strategic thinking. However, it was
my role as an Assistant Business Analyst at NEIP that significantly influenced my career path.
This role exposed me to the power of data-driven decision-making and the immense potential
of analytics in transforming businesses. Analyzing data to identify market trends, predict
consumer behavior, and optimize business processes became more than a job – it became
my passion.
As I transitioned into the role of an entrepreneur with the establishment of "The Pycs," a
business consultancy that offers innovative and digital solutions to help businesses and
individuals achieve brand success and profit maximization, my appreciation for data analytics
grew further. I realized that, in the modern business landscape, data is the lifeblood of
strategic decision-making. My aim with "The Pycs" is to guide businesses in transitioning to
the online world through data-driven business strategies and digital solutions. I am dedicated
to helping businesses harness the potential of analytics to make informed decisions that lead
to growth and profitability.
In addition to "The Pycs," I co-founded and serve as the co-CEO of Quaint Fx, a forex trading
and training institute with a focus on teaching foreign market analysis, financial literacy, and
financial management. This venture reinforced the importance of data analytics in making
effective financial decisions in the volatile world of foreign exchange markets. It also
underlined the significance of data in ensuring financial sustainability and profitability.
Recently, I ventured into the fashion industry by starting "Creative Wears - The Fashion Tribe,"
a branded apparel and clothing business. Here, too, I see the potential of data analytics in
understanding consumer preferences, optimizing inventory management, and creating
targeted marketing campaigns.
My educational journey at the University of Cape Coast was not confined to the classroom. I
was an active member of the university's business club, where I gained experience in
organizing events, managing resources, and participating in workshops and networking
opportunities. During my bachelor's degree, I completed a series of internships, enhancing
my practical knowledge in management, marketing, and design communication. My
involvement in student government, as well as my current roles as Youth President for Calling
Team United and Organizer for Sanctuary Compassion of Christ International Foundation
(SCCIF), reflects my dedication to community and personal development.
Despite my extensive practical experience, I have not yet had the opportunity to engage in
formal research or publish academic work. However, my experiences as an Assistant Business
Analyst and my passion for business analytics have equipped me with strong analytical and
problem-solving skills. I am eager to take this expertise into the academic realm and explore
the potential of data analytics in solving complex business challenges. During my MSc
program, I am enthusiastic about the prospect of contributing to research projects and
collaborating with faculty members on initiatives that advance the field of business analytics.
In conclusion, my journey from high school to becoming an entrepreneur and co-founder of
multiple businesses has been a testament to my unwavering dedication to the world of
business. My time as an Assistant Business Analyst ignited my passion for data analytics,
which I am eager to develop further through an MSc in Business Analytics at the University of
Northampton. I am excited about the opportunity to gain a deep understanding of datadriven decision-making, predictive analytics, and business intelligence. I look forward to
enhancing my analytical skills, conducting research, and applying data analytics to address
real-world business challenges.
The MSc in Business Analytics at the University of Northampton is the ideal platform for me
to elevate my career and make a significant contribution to the evolving world of business. I
am confident that this program will provide me with the knowledge and skills to harness the
full potential of data analytics in driving business success and innovation. I am eager to learn,
collaborate, and engage with faculty members and fellow students in a dynamic academic
environment. Thank you for considering my application, and I am enthusiastic about the
opportunity to embark on this transformative educational journey.
