He is currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Financial Economics at Ohio University. Prior to enrolling at Ohio University, the enterprising young man had his tertiary education with the Professional University where he acquired an MBA in Accounting and Finance and a Bachelor’s degree in Banking and Finance in 2018 and 2015 respectively.
