Instructor
Attu J Mynah famously known as AJ, She started modelling in 2006. At the start it was more of a hobby to her, but little did she know that the passion would make her one of the few successful African models in Scotland. She worked with two agencies but she came to a limelight when she joined Mannequin Models Agency where she got a chance to do bigger fashion shows and got to know the industry well. She returned to Tanzania in 2010 and started her own Model agency (Blackfox Models Africa) with her friend as her business partner. She has partnered with many fashion designers and events in Tanzania as its one of her biggest passions.
She currently works with international brand campaigns as well as movies as a casting director in east Africa.
With her work, she realised the biggest gap in Model industry is knowledge to those with passion, and hence the kick off of her Model academy sessions in Tanzania, on you tube and also in UDEMY.
Attu also in her career is a renown Innovation and Commercialization Manager who had successfully launched projects for innovations and renovations for Brands that strategically grew their market share in East Africa. Check her LinkedIn page for more information.
She has worked for many world top Brands including Smirnoff, Johnnie Walker, Mercedez Benz, Volkswagen, Suzuki as well as top African brands under Serengeti Breweries Ltd.
