"All I want to say is take the inspiration and don’t copy others “Be your own creation and stay unique with your own mixture of colour”. Don’t feel scared or shy in this field, just stay connected to your passion and have the determination to achieve it as there will be a lot of hurdles which will try and pull you down from your goal."

“To do any creative work you have to work hard, be unique and be smart to know the market and provide the customer needs. The minute you are able to meet majority of the customer needs, know that your thinking and creation has been developed out of the box because you are promoting yourself not just within your community but outside as well. In life there are many ups and downs, I went through many phases. Nowadays not many from our community are there in this field but for those who are inspiring to become designers I would say, stay focus and be passionate about your dream and know an in-depth history of our own culture and then learn about the culture of other communities. Always stay open to new ideas and learning, don’t limit yourself to one, this will be help you to grow and develop.”
