ABOUT
Meet Chinyere M. Ugokwe, the immortal poet, writer, musician, tech engineer, social advocate and entrepreneur who continues to show her passion for culture! Chinyere seems to be a master of all as she executes her works effortlessly and diligently.
Her exceptional and creative way of doing things gave her an edge not only in the fashion industry but also in all ramifications of life. Being well informed psychologically, she has transformed and eased the journey of many in reaching their set targets and goals.
For the fact that she is a phenomenal poet/writer, her choices of words are exactly like a soothing balm to a crushed soul. When you read her poem/writeup, you feel so elated to have her as your mentor immediately.
When it comes into entrepreneurship, she has set good records for others to emulate. She is the brain behind an international popular fashion brand named "DashikiPride" and the first Afrocentric emoji keyboard named "AfreekMoji", an app that educates the world about the beauty of African culture through emoji icons.
Due to uniqueness of the fashion brand (dashikipride), her brand's story has been featured in AWPnetwork, VOUGE, BET, Revolt, PulseNG, Women of Rubies, and other top entrepreneurship/fashion platforms. Her top-notch clothing has gotten the endorsement of many artists such as Remy Ma, Monica, BlacChyna, Tiwa Savage, Banky W, Neyo to name a few.
Same goes for her Afrocentric emoji keyboard named "AfreekMoji" with it reaching the top app on the Apple Store. It's story was virally featured on BellaNaija, Atlanta Black Star and lots more. It has gotten a wider acceptance by the Afro- community and the culture lovers as well.
These two initiatives have not only shown her love for entrepreneurship but also her great respect to her native (African) culture. In fact, it has helped in changing the flawed view that the western world had on Nigerian and the Africa continent at large.
Getting a musician whose music is filled with values, purpose, positive affirmations, addressing conscious matters, giving a voice to the voiceless, portraying life lessons, uplifting and exposing the flawed construct side of society, then you need to quickly subscribe to Chinyere's songs. Her music has that emotional appeal which can get you easily on track.
Another thing Chinyere distinguished herself with is advocacy. Her struggles and fights for the voiceless is a lens into her empathetic mind.
With her philanthropic mindset, She established a charity organization named "DiasporaNigerian" which she continues crowdfunding to generate funds to empower youths to start small scale businesses. Many remarkable milestones have been achieved through this.
Chinyere wishes to open up her social club "ChinnySoldiers" soon for youths and the thought thinkers across universities and other institutions to benefit them from her ocean of knowledge and practices.
