SHENTREPRENEUR

So first to be featured on our Shentrepreneur label is Awura Abena Agyeman and she is M.A.D. (Making A Difference) in the society.
 She was birthed with volumes of inspiration. A very dedicated lady she is. Ever heard of Wear Ghana?? Well she is the Co-owner of Wear Ghana and a great "Shentrepreneur".

EDUCATION
An old student of the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (K.N.U.S.T.)


WEAR GHANA
 WEAR GHANA started as an aside when Ewurabena was still doing a full time job with Pro Credit. It started by a motivation she had from one friend of hers who saw potential in her interest for designs and purchased a whole range of fashion Books with different styles and materials for fashion designing. She eventually quit Pro Credit because she had much passion for fashion designing than "Business".
What started as an own made "one-design-shirt" for this same friend on his birthday has gradually become a giant in the Fashion industry promoting Made-In-Ghana materials.
She eventually made it known to the "now-owner" of Wear Ghana, Angorkor Nai-Kwabe, who happens to be her roommate way back in K.N.U.S.T.

INSPIRATION
I bet you want to know what inspires her right to make those beautiful designs on clothes. Three things are Her inspiration.
Her biggest inspiration to my surprise is not music, leisure or any other norm. Her biggest inspiration is God! She believes her life is in His infallible hands and that gives her a boldness that she says she would ordinarily not have.

Guess you've ever heard the phrase, "there's No place like home." Note the difference between a house and a home. Yea! The people in your house make the difference between a home and a house. Ewurabena draws inspiration from her family too because they have so much faith in her. As to how that happens,  i guess you can visit her at work to see some designs and like her facebook page WearGhana
Or Twitter......@WEARGHANA and you will understand better how her family inspires her.

 Never let go of your past because to Awura Abena her past also serves as an inspiration. Knowing where she's  come from and where she's going actually serves as a stepping stone for her to see a brighter future.

"These are stepping stones. Our biggest challenge has been building a strong company and brand. And we are working tirelessly to achieve this. "

 
According to Awura Abena, "when you spot an opportunity to make it,  never let go of it. Work on it as an "aside" and see its yielded results".

Excellent job done Awura Abena.
