To everyone’s surprise he was called by one of the Norwegian modelling agencies named Cabal Modeller while he was completing his school program. All this landed Shekib to a modelling contract in the year 2007 after being invited by Cabal Modeller for a photoshoot. It was finally in the year 2008, when Shekib outstands among the 8500 models to claim the title of “Amfi Model” and eventually grabbed various international contract and attended fashion weeks in Milan, Paris, London, Dubai and so on.

On the otherhand, Shekib was exploring the field of international marketing management to gain knowledge about the field and finished his Master degree. Further, he decided to invest in his own fashion brand and help other with his fashion skills as a fashion consultant by joining hands with a Norwegian fashion brand.
