My name is Nwagbara Jessica, a graduate of English and literary studies/History and international relations, from University of Nigeria.

As a result of my desire to delve into the fashion industry, I love the likes of Toyin Lawani, her fashion sense is topnotch and most of her designs are great. Then, Funke Akindele Bello is one person I respect so much, she is hard working and creating jobs for young actors.

You’re a graduate from University of Nigeria, Nsukka. Was your course what you applied for initially? How was your undergraduate days and how has it shaped who you are presently?
Growing up, I never wanted to go to school. Wanted to go to a fashion school but my dad declined. I applied for Law, cutoff mark for 2015 was super high, I ended up shopping to combined Arts then I got it. Was given Theater and Film Studies\English, as a result of being a shy girl while growing up, I opted for English/History.
It wasn’t easy combining as a result of different courses clashing, then lecturers who felt students who combined were dummies because most people who combined didn’t apply for the course as their first choice.
It made me strong because right now I can multi task.
One accessory you can’t leave home without.
My glasses.
