I have hands-on experience in data collection, data entry, and data analysis, particularly using Excel and Stata. During my undergraduate studies, I was actively involved in data collection for my final year research project. This involved designing data collection tools, gathering field data, and organizing the information for analysis.
In addition to academic research, I contributed to a World Health Organization (WHO) project focused on the price and availability of essential medicines in Ghana. This experience gave me practical exposure to standardized data collection methods and working within international research frameworks. I was responsible for collecting accurate pricing and availability data from healthcare facilities across the country.
For data analysis, I used both Microsoft Excel and Stata to clean, organize, and interpret data. Excel was particularly helpful in managing datasets, performing descriptive statistics, creating charts, and generating summary tables. Stata was used for more advanced statistical analysis to support the conclusions of my research work.
Overall, my background has equipped me with strong data handling skills—from field data collection to entry and analysis—using reliable tools like Excel and Stata. I am confident in working with data to generate insights and support evidence-based decision-making.
