After my primary school education, I proceeded to JSS but dropped out along the way because of financial constraints. I picked up the arts and started training in it. I had a master who trained me and also trained other individuals to carve. Aside from carving, I learned the trait of seriousness from my master. For 10 years I stayed and learned to carve.

After I graduated from my master's shop, I opened up my own shop. In the beginning, acquiring funds to open up the shop wasn't easy, but I did it.

I am married with 2 children, a boy and a girl, who are both in school. I do my best to take care of my family; they mean a lot to me. Now I also finish the pieces that I carve. My inspiration comes from my imagination. I hope to be the best.

I was born in Accra-Zongo lane to Madam Esther and Mr. Benjamin Wiafie. I have three siblings, and as the firstborn I am known to be disciplined and hardworking. These attributes of mine came about because my parents were very strict on me and my siblings and imbibed Christian principles in us.
