Q:What factors pushed or pulled you to be in the modeling industry ?
A:. I don’t think there was a particular pull or push factor that I can identify, rather its more of people who inspired me and my growth as an individual. However what I can say is growing up I had a lot of body shaming problems and then I grew up and accepted and grew in my skin, I guess that manifested itself into modelling, so there was more of a need to prove to myself so I guess that was my push and pull factor.
Q:You are well known as one of Zimbabwe’s best photogenic models in Zimbabwe and also you are a commercial model.What do you love about your passion ?
A: I love that I give creative value to peoples products, having the room and space to create art for people, that is the best feeling in the world.
Q:What are the two misconceptions the public has about modeling ?
A:People think models are vain and people think models are gigolos. People don’t take modelling seriously, its a misunderstood expression of art.
Q:What are some of the challenges that you faced when you were competing for the Mister Zimbabwe title?
A:It was a big change actually, I had to sacrifice a lot of time to the pageant and it was expensive both financially and timewise, because between school, work and family I barely have time for modelling these days.
The Mr Zimbabwe was important pageant to me and I Ioved every moment of it.
Q: Unfortunately you didn’t win the title but you won the hearts of many as you were the most voted model ,what did it mean to you ?
A:Wow what a moment it was, I’m more than grateful for the people that showed their support.
The title itself means a lot because I’m the People’s Choice and this means I won the hearts of the Public that’s the best title one could win.
Q:Which brands in the brand are you aiming to work with ?
A:Brand wise I’m still figuring it out on my next path, but my top agenda is on charity work.
I think we need to do more, as the youth, to advocate more, talk more , sing more about issues that are affecting us as young people.
That is something I’m really focusing on this year.
