Born Alberta Boatema Ampomah in Accra on November 3, 1994, she competed internationally for Ghana in weightlifting and was also identified as an arm wrestler. Her international career included the womenβs 75-kilogram category at the 2010 Commonwealth Games in Delhi, two years before the London Olympics.
At the African Olympic qualifiers, Ampomah placed third in the clean and jerk division. She later received a wildcard entry to the 2012 Games, where she represented Ghana in London. Her record thus includes appearances at the Commonwealth Games and the Olympics, as well as a placing in the African qualifying competition. The information available about her sporting career identifies these events and results, along with her work in weightlifting and arm wrestling; it does not specify further results from her Olympic or Commonwealth appearances.
