From Market Stall to Machine Learning: Abena's Story

Ama Owusu May 20, 2026 3 views

Abena Sarpong joined our Python course in 2024 with a borrowed laptop and a dream. She studied at night after closing her market stall, never missing a single session.

After completing the AI & Machine Learning program, she built a sales-prediction tool for market traders as her capstone project — which caught the attention of a fintech recruiter at our career fair.

"DDA didn't just teach me to code. They believed in me before I believed in myself," she says. Abena now mentors new students every Saturday.
