Two years ago, I embarked on a transformative journey to pursue an LL.M in International Dispute Settlement & Arbitration at Leiden Law School Universiteit Leiden / Leiden University. Despite an initial setback, when my University of Ghana language proof was not accepted, leading to the cancellation of my admission midway through the first academic year, I persevered.
With determination, I resubmitted my application for the new academic year and was successfully enrolled.
This experience, enriched by supportive lecturers like my thesis supervisor, Dr. Eric De Brabandere and diverse study mates from around the world, has shaped my expertise in international dispute settlement, trade, investment, company and commercial transactions, and arbitration.
Today, I climbed another Ladder, Advanced Masters in Law; LL.M, International Dispute Settlement successfully bagged.
I am deeply grateful to my husband, Roland, my family, srudy assistance, and friends, especially [Name withheld], Sammi Awuku, and Kwabena Ampofo Appiah (Vyrus) for their unwavering support. Thank you Ernest Ohene Kyei and Pammy Beyoutifull for honouring my Invitation.
I am now poised to build a successful career leveraging these skills, contributing to complex legal and commercial landscapes.
Signed at the Great sweat wall, to the Glory of God !
Never, Ever Give Up!
