  • I am a Tanzanian-American fashion designer currently pursuing a BS Degree in Visual Communication & Digital Media Arts (VCDMA) with a concentration in Fashion Design at Bowie State University.

    I am motivated to create unique and detailed designs. I consider myself highly ambitious and willing to meet and exceed all requirements. What distinguishes my creations from other designers is my boldness to explore and use different pattern designs to create my work. My concept is derived from culture, personality, and elegance. The goal of my fashion career is to bring my ideas to life and give people the opportunity to resonate with my creativity. In the future, I would love to pursue a career in the fashion industry, specifically designing red carpet dresses and costumes for movies and music performing artists. I want my designs and outfits to exude my passion for my artistic expression.
