28 – Adombi Appiah

BIO:

Joining the Bee and qualifying for the finals has taught me a lot about how to apply the rules of the origins of words to help me spell them. It’s also boosted my self-confidence and self-discipline. And this is why I believe that I can be an entrepreneur one day. Not only do I admire the fact that I can be my own boss, but I have the skill set to adapt and succeed. Playing the piano and drums helps me to relax, and Dubai is on top of my list of places to visit because the city is well-organised and neat. The Christian remix of BAND4BAND is my favourite song, and I often play it whilst thinking of how to tackle climate change effectively. Mastering words for the Bee takes up a lot of my time; that said, I still have time to make up a word – “tipotephobia” which means the “fear of nothing” and has a Greek prefix and suffix.
