How did your journey in modeling begin?
My modeling journey began in 2017 when I contested in the Miss Capital Beauty Pageant and emerged as the 3rd runner-up. That experience lit a spark in me, and I haven’t looked back since. Each stage I’ve stepped on has added a new layer to my story.
What are some of the challenges you faced and how did you overcome them?
One of my biggest challenges was not having the financial support or connections that many others in the industry had. But I came in with heart, consistency, and resilience. I learned to do a lot by myself from styling to networking and each challenge made me stronger and more resourceful.
What inspired you to pursue a career in modeling?
I wanted to express myself in a way that spoke louder than words. Modeling gave me that power. It’s more than just beauty it’s advocacy, confidence, and visibility. I saw it as a platform where I could make an impact and inspire others to own their identity proudly.

What has been the most rewarding experience of your journey in modeling so far?
Winning the Face of Exclusive African Movie Production Pageant in 2019 was a game changer. But more than titles, it’s the people I’ve inspired and the growth I’ve experienced mentally, spiritually, and emotionally that’s been the most rewarding.

With your experience in pageantry, do you think it will be an advantage to you?
Definitely. I’ve walked this road before, and each pageant has taught me something new how to carry myself, how to speak, how to lead. That experience is not just an advantage, it’s a guide.
What makes you stand out from other contestants?
I show up as me authentic, relatable, and deeply connected to purpose. I bring grace, culture, and a powerful sense of identity. I’m not here to outshine others, I’m here to make the light brighter for everyone.
If you are crowned Miss Charm Nigeria, how would you use this office to make an impact in society?

How would you rate your performances in the tasks so far?
I’d say I’ve given nothing less than 100%. From cultural showcases to beauty routines, I’ve brought creativity, effort, and passion into every single task.
What are your hobbies and interests outside of pageantry?
I love dancing, singing, baking, and traveling. I also enjoy volunteering and bringing joy to people. It’s important for me to stay grounded and joyful through everything I do.
Who are your role models and why?
I admire women like Agbani Darego and Viola Davis women who broke barriers with grace. They remind me that elegance and strength can exist in one body.
