am a multilingual Ghanaian lawyer with seven years of practice experience across dispute resolution and transactional work, now specialised in international dispute settlement. I hold an LL.M in International Dispute Settlement (MIDS) from the Graduate Institute and University of Geneva (2024–2025), where I was named an ICCA Johnny Veeder Fellow.
Since completing the MIDS, I have built hands-on experience on both the counsel and tribunal sides of international arbitration. My practice experience includes:
• Assisting arbitral tribunals with the preparation of final awards in an ICSID gas pricing investment claim, an HKIAC post-M&A dispute, and a JCAA commercial dispute. (ArbBoutique, Brussels)
• Supporting counsel on an ICC construction arbitration seated in Stockholm, a Swiss Rules private wealth arbitration, and an advisory opinion on a potential investment treaty claim under the ICSID Convention and/or Energy Charter Treaty. (LALIVE, Geneva)
• Advising multinationals across oil and gas, renewable energy, banking and finance, and fintech, and acting as counsel and supporting counsel in international commercial arbitration and litigation before the Ghanaian courts. (AELEX, Accra)
• Assisting an expert witness on Ghanaian law and policy in an LCIA arbitration between a foreign energy investor and a Ghanaian parastatal entity, civil litigation before the Ghanaian courts and corporate governance advisory. (Atuguba & Associates, Accra)
• Serving as a Research and Teaching Assistant involved in curriculum development, tutorial delivery, and research work in the areas of Public International Law, International Human Rights Law, International Humanitarian Law and Gender and the Law.
In addition to CIARB, I am a member of the IBA, ICCYAAF, SOAS ADR Centre, YoungICCA, YoungITA, LCIA YIAG, Young ICSID, and the Association of Young Arbitrators (AYA).
I am also fluent in English and Twi, have professional working proficiency in French, intermediate proficiency in Spanish, and beginner level German and Chinese.
