— How did you become a model?
I grew up in the countryside of Tanzania, Tabora, and I had a passion for fashion since a young age. I used to take pictures of myself with my phone. My elder sister realized my talent, and she told me I could be a model because of my looks. Later I moved to the city of Dar es Salaam for college, and that’s where I started collaborating with photographers and stylists. I was later discovered by my mother agency Gift Models, and got signed.

— What are three interesting facts about you?
1. I say sorry and thank you to people for no strong reason. And that always makes me get many friends who want to help when I’ve problems.
2. I like directing music videos. I always enjoy and get inspired by the combination of art done to produce a single meaningful video.
3. I like to see people of different races from different parts of the world working together because I believe they can create something big by sharing their ideas.

— One thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
I wear thrift clothes the most. Friends and people around me always ask where I get my unique clothes that they think I buy from brand new shops, but the truth is I thrift a lot and at cheap prices from different local markets.
