Her training and experience includes SAS, SUDAAN, STATA, SPSS, MINITAB, MPL, AMPL, R.

Afia loves teaching, and her educational experience has led her to spend her free time organizing meetups for Ghanaian women that will help inspire them to step up to leadership roles. She conducted initial in-depth interviews of women in technology in Ghana; based on their stories, she galvanized a pool of programming resources through the Statistics Without Borders. Afia has recruited more than 20 leadership roles for two separate women-focused movements in two major cities—Accra & Kumasi— in the West African Country; Ghana.
