In this episode, Chidiebere shares his journey from childhood curiosity to dual success. From a young age, he was driven by his endless curiosity, always eager to tinker, fix and explore. But it wasn't until high school that another side of him was awakened - a love for the art of drawing. Inspired by a friend's incredible talent, he decided to teach himself how to draw. And despite being self-taught, Chidiebere's passion for art only grew stronger as he relentlessly pursued perfection.
In spite of his success in art, Chidiebere never lost sight of his dream to enter the world of medicine. It was then, during a time of profound struggle in his journey that he created the powerful "Black Fetus" image, a piece that would change his life forever. This image not only showcased his artistic abilities but also opened doors and provided opportunities in the field of medical illustration. Chidiebere is grateful for the mentors who believed in him as he pursued his dual passions, becoming a successful medical illustrator.
