Model and entrepreneur Trish Ruvarashe Kamuzonde says she is passionate about empowering women through talent discovery and monetisation.
“Beyond modelling, I'm also a businesswoman, selling wigs and offering hairdressing services,” Kamuzonde said.
“I believe women can achieve financial independence by identifying their strengths and turning them into profitable ventures.”
Kamuzonde emphasised the potential of women to alleviate poverty and reduce complaints about financial hardship through self-empowerment and learning from successful entrepreneurs.
Her modelling journey began in 2022 at Truth Models Academy in Bulawayo.
Lacking industry knowledge initially, she drew inspiration from watching Miss Zimbabwe and eventually decided to pursue modelling.
“Exercise is my therapy,” she shared.
She maintains a rigorous workout routine, incorporating gym sessions five days a week and a healthy diet.
