Vice President – Tinaye Munonyara

Currently studying my final year of Business Management. As a devoted networker I joined the society in my first year of University in 2006 in an effort to widen my contacts and become more enterprising.
I undertook my first entrepreneurial venture in high school where I was the Administrative Director in our young entrepreneurs club and came up with the idea of selling profiteroles to fellow students during lunch times. The business proved to be very profitable as each member of our business team earned a good weekly salary and students enjoyed our cream puffs.
In 2007 at University I started selling USB flash drives to friends and customers. This pass time soon turned into registered company under the name Infinite Solutions, a company that sold USB flash drives to customers and customized flash drives to businesses. I then multi tasked and leveraged my resources by running this company as part of Kingston University’s Young Enterprise module. By consolidating my existing business idea into this module, I was able to practice what I was learning from the module. I also benefited from making contacts, engaging with mentors; and furthering my skills through lectures, workshops and events.
In 2008 I was appointed Communications Manager for the Society. I successfully undertook this role and went on to become the Vice President of the Society in 2009, working closely with the new management team on strategies and tactics to fulfill our goals. In 2010, I’m also competing in a number of Enterprise competitions (Bright ideas, Epic etc) and working on a few business ideas which include developing an application for smart phones (starting with iPhones) and a business that deals with 3D laser technology.
I believe the society’s motto of “create, lead and inspire” speaks volumes as young entrepreneurs need these qualities to make their mark in the competitive world of business.im working towards owning businesses, becoming an investor and motivational speaker. I’m also interested and learning about real estate business, share trading and spread betting. Being part of the society offers a great platform which will help me achieve these future goals whilst I help others achieve their goals. I am excited about the future and hope you join us on this tremendous journey towards financial literacy and financial freedom!

PR Director – Coral Andrews

Coral Andrews is a dynamic, creative entrepreneur from South London. After studying design at college, Coral knew that she wanted to work within the creative industries, but not as a designer. Not knowing anything about PR apart from it sounded like ‘her kind of thing’, she managed to land herself an internship at a PR Agency in Central London. Her eyes opened up to a world of opportunities she had never known existed! Coral is concerned primarily with the creation and exploitation of creative and intellectual capital. Her passions include contemporary art, hip-hop and urban culture, fashion and street wear, knitting and crochet, pr and marketing, social media and brand identity.
Coral is now studying for a degree in Journalism with Media and Cultural Studies at Kingston University and works freelance – writing features/articles, copywriting for a handful of companies and in PR and marketing. She is also a self-confessed social network and media junkie. Coral has plans to launch her own design-based company in the near future selling hand knitted toys, accessories and home ware and promoting the benefits of buying handmade goods.
