Healthcare innovation, diagnostics and business development

I started in medical laboratory science in Ghana and moved into diagnostics business development, where I worked with clinicians and laboratories to make advanced testing easier to access. I’m now studying sustainable innovation and entrepreneurship at Antwerp Management School. I’m interested in roles where I can help bring diagnostic services into clinical practice and build the partnerships that support them.

Diagnostics, clinical partnerships and laboratory practice

Jul 2024 – Jul 2025 · Accra, Ghana

Revna Biosciences

Medical Sales & Business Development Executive

  • I negotiated long-term agreements with five private healthcare facilities so they could send samples to Revna for molecular testing.
  • I brought more than 35 hospitals, diagnostic centres and specialist clinics on board. I also reworked the paperwork, improving onboarding efficiency by 15%.
  • I walked more than 200 physicians, oncologists and laboratory directors through how the tests worked and the evidence behind them.

Metropolis Healthcare Ghana Ltd.

Technical Sales Officer

  • I built a pathology referral network with more than 25 specialists across oncology, gynaecology and surgery, helping clinicians connect with advanced tissue and molecular testing.
  • In conversations with clinicians, I explained how tests such as liquid biopsies and genetic profiling could support their work. Specialist test sales volume increased by 40%.
  • About eight months into the role, I took on management of the Korle Bu branch alongside my sales work. I supervised three staff, tracked branch performance and managed relationships with clients and staff.
  • I monitored attendance, resolved staff conflicts at branch level and coached team members on client service.

Nouvia

A fellow Antwerp Management School student and I are exploring what options people in Belgium have for women’s health testing. We’re comparing labs, home-testing providers and ways of collecting samples. Our research will help identify where a new diagnostics service could fit.

Applied sustainability coursework

Hospital waste management

I wanted to understand who does what when a hospital separates its waste. I mapped the responsibilities of procurement, stores and clinical teams, then proposed where to place collection points, what staff workflows to observe and what managers could track.

Community health outreach and stakeholder engagement

As president of the Federation of Ghana Medical Laboratory Students’ Association, I helped bring together people who could make community health activities happen, from local organisers to health officials and student leaders.

  • I launched Know Your Status, a project on non-communicable diseases, and worked with the Ministry of Health on a monthly health webinar.
  • I visited 21 tertiary institutions across Ghana to meet student leaders and speak with institutional heads about student welfare.
