I am a man on a mission. As part of my “Colossus Project,” I aim to be recognized as an influential media/communication scholar and consultant of African origin, with specializations in corporate activism/advocacy, critical public relations, strategy-as-practice, Afro-futurism, Africapitalism and Africonsciousness, and development communication. 

I intentionally seek to help unlock the challenges to global development by undertaking relevant research and publication, teaching, community service, consulting, and active scholarship that speaks to some of the deepest-cutting present-day social developmental issues.

Prior to coming to academia, I was a media and communication consultant in Ghana. I have more than 15 years of professional experience under my belt, with practical experience in the promotional practices, including public relations, advertising, brand development and management, event management, and strategic change communication.

My professional experience straddles diverse contexts, such as in-house strategic communication departments, PR consultancies, advertising and branding agencies, Ghana’s private and public sectors, and the USAID and World Bank systems in the West African subregion.
