Improvising and collaborating are two of Kudakwashe's greatest strengths. He acquired these strengths through his experiences at Chizungu Primary
where lack of adequate school materials resulted in him sharing a single school textbook with atleast three other students. Such experiences became the catalyst in molding a punctual and amicable Kudakwashe with tremendous respect for cooperation.
In High School, Kudakwashe and his brother started a tuck-shop in the community of Domboramwari, Epworth in Zimbabwe mostly to put to use the skills they were learning in their busines and accounting classes. His success in running this small business provoked the entrepreneur within to sprout, arousing an unquenchable interest for him to venture in business on a larger scale.
Kudakwashe's agreement with Mahatma Gandhi's words; "the best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others" saw him starting a program called Love to Learn to ensure that the less privileged children in the community of Domboramwari had access to basic education. He also volunteered as a tutor at Chiedza Day Care in Harare, Zimbabwe and in his freshman year he volunteered at Frazee Dream Center helping children acquire basic literacy through Furman's Engaged Living Global Poverty Program.
The end of his freshman year in college saw him becoming a candidate for the University Innovation Fellows Program, President of Baba Africa, Multicultural Recruitment Student Assistant, Admissions Office Summer Intern, Library Student Assistant, member of the Phi Eta Sigma National Honor Society and Exploration of Vocation and Ministry at Furman University.
His academic interests are mainly in Accounting and Computer Science which he plans to utilize in facilitating an exponential growth in Zimbabwe's social entrepreneurs.
