Media & Speaking
A voice that bridges data and lived development experience.
Richard is a confident, compelling communicator who can hold his own in a highly technical discussion and also tell a story that moves a general audience.
Richard is available for speaking engagements, podcast interviews, panel discussions, and media features. He brings a rare combination: the analytical rigour of a data scientist and the human warmth of someone who has spent years on the ground in communities that needed real change.
His work spans Ghana and the United Kingdom, connecting the lived experience of grassroots community development with the global conversations about AI, climate action, and sustainable development. That combination makes him a distinctive voice in rooms that often hear from one or the other, but rarely both.
If you are convening a conversation that would benefit from a voice rooted in both data science and development work, from both Ghana and global institutions, Richard would be glad to join it.
