Deelaila Ramzi, 34, who lives in Kota Kinabalu, Sabah, has always had an interest in creative pursuits since she was a child living abroad with her family.

“When I was nine, we lived in Ashgabat, Turkmenistan, because of my dad’s work. My mum was involved in charity work and I’d often follow her as she taught English in orphanages during weekends, and to visit homes for the aged during the week.
