Q.What do you think are the factors that have contributed in terms of the modeling industry in Bulawayo to be facing challenges?A.Well I believe lack of funding in terms in sponsorship and a struggling economy has led to the challenges being faced by the modeling industry in Bulawayo. Due to this most Bulawayo models fail to compete in many competitions as they cannot afford to buy outfits and pay registration fees for peagants and lack of sponsorship leads to little or no competitions taking place.
Q.Any plans of expanding your modeling career?A . Yes, I definitely plan to expand my modeling career. Whatever opportunity comes my way I will grab it with both hands and hopefully it takes me far, hopefully I can make it internationally.
