Mariam Elisha
My name is Maryam Elisha, I am a
fashion designer. I was once an ex beauty queen. I have been an ex model for
about two years and I am still into it. I modeled for about 8 years before I
retired into fashion designing. I modeled for so many companies like, MTN. I
did bill-board, and TV ads for MTN.
Presently, I am a full time fashion
designer. I have not really acted, though I love acting. I do not think I am
called to act. Acting takes a lot of time trying to be what you are not, and I
do not really love that. You know every career has its challenges.
Way back when I started
modeling , I had several challenges of casting.Most of the time, models are not
well treated you have to wait in line, But, all those things are
not really challenges because, I would tell you that, there was
money in modelling then. I made more money and I had fun. They paid me really
well then unlike now that models are giving peanuts.
I think then, they had few models
and few people were willing to dabble into modelling business unlike
today where everybody wants to be a model. All I can say is that I was well
paid
