well. well as some counselling online.
TCM: As an old girl of Mfantsiman
Senior High, if given the chance,
would it still be your choice and
what are some of the experiences
you picked up from the school?
GTK: Yes and if given the chance I
would go there again but of course
with the mentality of making an im-
pact given what I know now. Even
though every institution has its pe-
culiar challenges, all in all it was a
good place. At the time we had wa-
ter shortages and had to travel long
distances to fetch water. The chal-

GTK: After my national service in the
year 2000, I travelled to Cote d’Ivo-

Ghana and joined SG-SSB Bank in
June 2003 as a personal assistant
to the new French Managing Direc-

Foreign Operations Department. I
left SG-SSB in September 2007 to
join Intercontinental Bank (now Ac-
cess Bank), where I worked till I fi-
nally left the corporate world in
TCM: Can you give us your journey
through tertiary education at the
University of Ghana, Legon?
GTK: It wasn’t all smooth sailing,
with hitches here and there espe-
cially since I was coming from a
Christian home. It was what I would
refer to as a ‘pressurized’ environ-
ment and as much as I tried to stay
focused, there were occasional dis-
tractions but God saw me through.
I begun with Linguistics, Spanish
and French and majored in Spanish
and Linguistics. The language op-
tion has worked for my good as we
currently have a branch church in
Malabo, Equatorial Guinea where
Spanish is spoken, giving me the
opportunity to do translations as
