Miss Ghana: Bernadette Amofa

Hello. Akwaaba. This is Bernadette Amofa and she is beyond thrilled to be standing here in front of each and every one of you to represent her hometown of the Ashanti tribe of Ghana. Every accomplishment has a vision and this bold 23-year-old stands before each and every one of you to show how diverse and prestigious her country is. Bernadette had the pleasure of living in Ghana for 4.5 years. During this time she was able to learn more about her culture and heritages as well as adapting and bringing Ghanaian culture to America. One thing she loves to do in Ghana was to eat fanice vanilla ice cream.

She moved to Arizona for school from Los Angeles, California. She has a twin brother, a younger sister and a younger brother. One fun fact about her siblings is that 3 out of the 4 share the same birthday, October 16.  She has a Bachelor’s of Science in biology. She is pre-rolling into physician assistant school and wants to specialize in women’s health. Bernadette is an awesome poetry writer who thrives on antithesis poetry. The quality of beauty and emotions Bernadette adds to her poetry creates a high-intensity feeling of distinctive styles and rhythms. If Bernadette is not on her quiet mountain writing poetry she loves to express feeling through dancing. Her favorite style of dancing includes the Adowa and hip-hop. If she is honored to become Miss Africa Arizona, she will continue to spread different cultural traditions of her country, and will teach individuals the true meaning of peace love, respect, and integration between others.
