Anathi Conjwa is a singer-songwriter, actor, international award-winning theater maker, mental health advocate, and model. Her theater career kicked off in 2017, with her performance as a lead in the Hear Me Move musical, a project that coincided with her first year at AFDA University.

The multifaceted artist takes pride in exploring and inserting herself in different artistic mediums. Holding titles within the world of pageantry, she sees herself as a sojourner in the vast expanses of creative expression. Throughout 2020 and 2021, Conjwa was featured in multiple advertising commercials and her face has been seen on countless billboards nationwide and in countries south of the Sahara Desert. In 2021, Conjwa entered the reality music competition Idols on MNet and was ultimately chosen as a Top 10 finalist. Mental Health is at the forefront of most of her artistic projects.
