Short Biography
I’m an experienced professional with a proven track record in teaching, and research.Throughout my career, I’ve always been driven by a desire to apply my expertise and become a valued asset for institutions that excel in academic and research pursuits. Notably, my experience as a Research Associate at the Centre for Peace, Security and Developmental Studies (CPSD), a non-profit think tank, was constructive. It honed my analytical skills and critical thinking through projects like drafting blogs, policy reports, and concept notes.
My academic background, with a PhD in European Studies and Masters in International Relations, has nurtured my deep interest in history, the contemporary world, and international affairs. My research has focused specifically on the transition from colonialism to neo-colonialism, particularly with regards to French policies in West Africa.
