If there’s one thing I know, it’s that one opportunity can unlock many doors.
In 2012, the ACT Nyoloha Scholarship Programme became a life-changing moment for me. It stretched me and affirmed my voice not only as an artist, but as a storyteller, dreamer, and industry pioneer.
That’s what Nyoloha does, it calls you higher!
