He holds a BSc. (Hons) in Natural Resources Management from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), Ghana.

He previously served as a Teaching and Research Assistant at the Department of Wildlife and Range Management, KNUST, where he supported undergraduate research through field data collection and analysis, facilitated tutorials in Wildlife Surveys, Wildlife Management, and Ecotourism, and contributed to community education on sustainability and conservation. He currently volunteers with the department, continuing to support academic and research activities while building his professional experience.

Kintor has participated in several ecological and biodiversity research projects across Ghana, working within forest reserves, protected areas, and extractive landscapes. His research experience includes involvement in environmental assessments of forest reserves in the Ashanti Region, biodiversity assessments within mining concession areas in collaboration with CSIR–FORIG, and contributions to the IUCN Green Status of Species assessment for African Forest Elephants.

His field experience spans bat, bird, mammal, and plant surveys, including research activities at Mole National Park, AngloGold Ashanti (Obuasi Mines), and Newmont Ahafo South Mine Site (Ahafo Region). His undergraduate research examined the effects of gut passage on seed germination by fruit bats, highlighting his interest in wildlife–ecosystem interactions and applied conservation science.
