I decided to took time off to care for my children after my second child. During this time, I seized the opportunity to live in the UK and Ghana with my husband for work. Living in both countries, travelling to other countries and cities in between coupled with the experiences of being a parent afforded me a unique opportunity to interact with diverse individuals and learn about other cultures. These experiences enriched my personal life, expanded and thinking, enhanced my ability to adjust to change effectively, manage transition smoothly, sharpen my problem solving and multitasking capabilities. This time has allowed me to clarify and solidify both my person and professional vision for my life and equipped me with many valuable skills that I'm confident will foster my successful return to working.
