Disabled jazz artist aims for greatness

The 33-year-old Gaborone Institute of Professional Studies (GIPS) graduate was born fully physically abled. In 2009 she was diagnosed with arthritis that incapacitated her leading to the use of a wheelchair.

Her commitment, perseverance and determination towards becoming one of Botswana’s finest jazz artists, however, tell a different story. Ross, also a gospel artist, says her love for the arts started way back during her primary school days but her first album was recorded in 2017.
