Quotes I love simplicity, peaceful and easy things because I know where I come from. Unfortunately, I have always got that kind of misjudgment as people perceive me to be a proud person. The manner in which I was raised stuck in me. Any three things we don’t know about you? I am happy when my client is happy; it gives me so much joy and makes me forget that they didn’t pay enough because I have so much emotion invested in that, they say the greatest joy for a woman is having a baby but I am yet to experience that. What is your idea of perfect happiness? It used to be rejection and failure but as I grew up, I realized that no matter the result, I have given it my best and that there is something better. I have however learnt to do things even more perfectly with experience. What is your greatest fear? I tend to want things done in an extremely perfect way forgetting that there are mistakes. What is the trait you most deplore in yourself? I can’t stand someone who lies to me. What is the trait you most deplore in others? My mother, Jean Ahabwe may not be rich but she is always very contented and happy. Her character has made me realise that I don’t need amazing cars or houses to be happy but use every little thing around me to create a happy environment . Which living person do you most admire? I like perfume and jewelry and it doesn’t matter whether I have too much in the room. When I started my fashion work, I was neither rich nor from a renowned. I am happy about the heights we have explored. Hating and judging people. The time we spend thinking about the people who hate us and trying to look for every little negative thing about them is just too much and yet not worth it. What do you consider the most overrated virtue? Being successful yet humble; with power comes a lot of pride and you may not mean to portray it but at times it catches up with you. However, when you walk through that path and still keep humble, it means being powerful. Only powerful people are able to do that. What does being powerful mean to you? I have lied before but as you grow up, you form different values. From them I have leanrt to train myself so hard to try and tell the truth. On what occasion do you lie?
