Samuel Agha

I'm a seasoned professional with an undergraduate degree in Industrial Relations and a minor Economics (Honours, B.A.) with experience in Banking & Human Resources. I have since pursued a postgraduate program in I.T. Business Analysis. I'm very proud of my experience and I wish to put my newly acquired Business Analyst skills into action.
