Juggling art, music, and studies

She is now in her 3rd year of studies and combines both studies and music at ago. 

She says juggling music and studies do not affect her studies Nishimwe says that she does music well and studies well too without any problem.

"For me nothing is impossible and when you love something, every day you seek time to do that. So I always find my time and practice my singing and it is not that difficult when you really know what you want," She adds.

On top of her singing talent, she finds poetry as a great component of her artistry. She therefore also does poetry too.

"There is no much difference between poetry and music because they both mean art. To write a great song always requires good lyrics which usually slant like a poem," she says.
