Kromah attended Eleanor Roosevelt High School in Greenbelt, Maryland. As a senior, he averaged 21 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 steals per game under coach Brendan O'Connell, going on to be named first team All-County by the Prince George's Gazette and All-Met fourth team by the Washington Post.
Kromah was recruited by Karl Hobbs to George Washington University after a stellar high school career. He was named to the Atlantic-10 all rookie team after averaging 11.8 points per game during his freshman season at GW. Heading into his sophomore season, Kromah was a Preseason Atlantic 10 Third Team All-Conference Selection. However, after suffering a left foot injury during a preseason scrimmage, Kromah was forced to sit out the entire 2010–11 season. As a junior in 2011–12, he averaged 11.1 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.7 steals and 29.4 minutes in 31 games. He led GW and ranked seventh in the A-10 in steals (52), second on team in scoring (345), assists (79), rebounds (159) and blocks (18). As a senior in 2012–13, Kromah played in all 30 games with 11 starts. He was second on the team with 10.1 points in 24.5 minutes per game. He finished his George Washington career with over 1,000 points, the 44th player in program history to accomplish that feat.
Kromah later reunited with Hobbs, who became an assistant at Uconn, and joined the Huskies as a graduate student with one season of eligibility remaining after playing three years and earning a degree in Criminal Justice from George Washington University. In 2013–14, he appeared in all 40 games for the Huskies, starting 17, while averaging 6.1 points and 2.7 rebounds per game. The Huskies went on to win 2014 NCAA championship.
After going undrafted in the 2014 NBA draft, Kromah joined the Brooklyn Nets for the 2014 NBA Summer League. On August 11, 2014, he signed with Alba Fehérvár of Hungary for the 2014–15 season.
