Driven by her passion to succeed, Thulisa’s hard work was evident when she matriculated with distinction and was offered numerous scholarships to study further. Graduating from UCT with a BComm Accounting and PGDA, Thulisa is currently completing her articles with one of the “Big Four” audit firms to become a chartered accountant.
Miss World is the oldest running international beauty pageant and was created in the United Kingdom by Eric Morley in 1951. What initially started as a swimsuit competition, has grown into a platform for philanthropic and humanitarian work with Julia Morley at the helm.
