Emmanuella Tagoe

Phase

Cohort

Emmanuella believes that she has come this far not only by her positivity, resilience and hard work but also by the help and support others have given her. As such, wherever she finds herself, she tries to help others who need her help as much as she can.  She has held various leadership positions ranging from being a team leader of several groups, being a mentor to junior colleagues in the Biomedical Engineering Students’ Society, to being the General Secretary of her church, Campus Christian Family. She used her influence to work together with team members on several projects and has helped junior colleagues to ace in their courses. It is her mission to support amputees in her community to help alleviate poverty in her community. In furthering her education in Biomedical Engineering, she seeks to work with like-minded people to invent low cost assistive technology for amputees that are equally or even more functional than ones already existing in her country and across the world.  Emmanuella Tagoe is positive, resilient, hardworking and passionate about helping others in society. In the next decade, Emmanuella hopes to establish an organization to produce assistive technology and help provide start-up businesses for amputees in her community.
