The first challenge in front of Nambili will be semi-final competition held in Atlanta, GA, where she will have a chance to meet other competitors and claim her spot at the national competition to be held in Washington, DC later this year.

After creating a group on Facebook titled "Help Sponsor Twama for Miss Africa USA Beauty Pageant," Nambili says she has received a lot of support from the SNC community, which helped her raise money to attend the semi-finals in the upcoming weeks.

Nambili, who is an elected member of the Student Government Assembly and a very active member of other clubs and organizations on campus, says she is happy to have chosen SNC as a place to get the best quality education.

"I like everything about SNC. People are nice and are taking care of me. I especially enjoy my classes because they are small and allow me to have very close friends."

SNC can boast about having students from more than thirty countries of the world at their small De Pere campus. They all come from different backgrounds, with extraordinary achievements and different ambitions, like Nambili, to make an impact on the world and be proud representatives of their respective countries.

Nambili's future at SNC is uncertain due to the financial problems caused by the volatile Namibian currency. However, she still cherishes every moment spent here, believes in goodness of the people and dreams that one day she will be in a position to help others to get proper education and care. The dream might not be too far from coming true.

"Even if I don't succeed in winning the title of Miss Africa, I will still work ardently on solving issues in my country, across the African continent and establishing cultural and business bonds between Africa and the world," concludes Nambili.
