About Tafadzwa Chamisa
Tafadzwa Chamisa is a devout follower of Jesus Christ who was born on the 7th of November in 1994 as the second born to Samuel Chamisa and Modester Gurura from Zimbabwe. He attended Godfrey Huggins primary school, St Francis Xavier’s Kutama College for Ordinary level and Goromonzi High School for A level .He graduated into university in the year 2013.Now he is enrolled at Near East University, Cyprus doing undergraduate studies as a SOFTWARE ENGINEER. Growing up Tafadzwa’s character was quite unpredictable but he always had interest in Business and Entrepreneurship .He had a book full of business idea that went unfunded and some were even executed exactly the way he thought. But as they say great minds think alike, he found confirmation that he too was great and got enough motivation to be able to identify other young people with the same dreams and help them grow in the future. He joined YALI (Young African Leadership Initiative) in 2012 in order to nature good leadership as he always saw the vision of him being a good leader for the good in one of the days to come. One greatest motivation was when he lost his girlfriend at the age of 20, during his gap year after high school, while working for a micro financing firm (Leon Business Solutions) in Zimbabwe as IT intern .This job withdrew a great deal of attention from his ‘relationship’ as he tried to earn as much as possible from his workplace in terms of integrity and skill.
Hi I'm Tafadzwa, enjoy using our platform .
THE END FOR NOW
None the less, he confesses having earned a great ordeal of business skills and applied business computing and database management from his IT boss. His motivation is his former CEO (Tinashe Murapata) ,his family9motivates him in a way he prefers to keep to himself) and his colleagues. However this was just a glimpse of the great work ahead.
Being a computer guy, one night after a long struggle of trying to find off-campus accommodation prior to his expulsion from the guest hostel at Near East University, he dreamt of an idea about using the principles of collaborative consumption to build a virtual space where students could find accommodation from surrounding landlords.Using the little knowledge of internet programming he earned from previous interactions and techniques from Rachel Botsman’s collaborative economy TED talks to build a site that addressed the problem at hand. As you know a real solution to a real problem needs less of marketing, FINACC had a wider client base in no time. It was quite hard to set up FINACC, due to policies that did not favor foreign investment and of course sourcing capital to set up an office and begin operations. As they say where there is a will there is a way, he and his friends were able to secure a fine investment deal in order to set up FINACC. We could go on and on but since this is just a BIO and Tafadzwa is only 21 and we quite sure this document will become a book of inspiration one day. Below is a quote from him,
“It has been a rocky road and guess that’s what makes life interesting and attention deserving”.
