style=\"font-size: 30px\">Before BU<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chiebuka attended Brother Rice High School, an all-boys Catholic preparatory high school in Michigan.\u00a0 While there, he became a member of both the track and soccer team, earning All-State for track during his freshman and senior years.\u00a0 The athletic drive didn\u2019t stop there, as he ended up being only two belts away from gaining black belt status in karate.\u00a0 Outside of athletic accomplishments, Chiebuka also demonstrated his drive for academic challenges, becoming a member of his high school\u2019s Quiz Bowl team, which was noted as a \u201chumbling experience\u201d.\u00a0 He also joined DECA, which helped prepare him for a business curriculum, and was voted as the VP of the student body during his senior year.\u00a0 When asked why he chose BU, he said the school simply interested him more.\u00a0 He really liked the idea of joining a community where there were so many different areas of study, and when he sat down to make his pros and cons list, BU swept away the competition!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 30px\">Since Coming to BU<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chiebuka came to BU as a member of the Track and Field team, focused on sprinting.\u00a0 During his freshman year, Chiebuka helped BU earn gold in the 4x100m at the Patriot League Championships.\u00a0 On top of that, Chiebuka made the Patriot League Academic Honor Roll, and set a personal best 100m time of 10.86.\u00a0 He also became a Residence Hall Association treasurer during his freshman year, an experience that he views as one of the most interesting roles he took during freshman year.\u00a0 Since the beginning of Sophomore year, Chiebuka has focused a lot of his attention on developing his own fashion label and designs.\u00a0 Polyman, the name of Chiebuka\u2019s official LLC brand, first started out as a broad media and fashion label during this past summer.\u00a0 Chiebuka at first wanted to provide videos, pictures, social media posts, motivational quotes, and clothing all through this one label.\u00a0 However, he eventually realized that it would be best if he first focused on stabilizing the brand before entering all these areas, and decided to spend this semester developing the clothing portion of the company.\u00a0 So what kept him motivated to complete this task?\u00a0 He made it his semester project for the first HP seminar.\u00a0 Chiebuka is now preparing for a fashion show with FAB (Fashion and Retail Association), where he will be one of the selected designers.\u00a0 Once the show is over, Chiebuka hopes to roll out a clothing line within the next few months.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 30px\">Post College Goals<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Chiebuka will try to continue running for as long as he possibly can after his time at BU.\u00a0 With the 2020 Olympics being only a month after graduation, Chiebuka hopes to possibly extend his career on either team USA or Nigeria.\u00a0 He will also look into other competitive running options, trying to gain some form of sponsorship from an athletic company.<\/p>\n<p>While it can be difficult for a sophomore to know exactly what they want out of their post college career, Chiebuka states that he just wants to be able to do something that will leave an impact.\u00a0 Giving back to the community and providing resources to people who don\u2019t have proper access to them has always been important to Chiebuka.\u00a0 He\u2019s seen people in both Detroit and Nigeria come from very limited backgrounds, and wants to produce a business that can help people in these situations, while also leaving behind a legacy in the process.\u00a0 If possible, Chiebuka would like to continue his fashion brand business, possibly using this company as a source for his desire to help.\u00a0 While much is still undetermined at this point, Chiebuka does know one thing; he wants to remain in a city environment.\u00a0 It seems as though the BU campus has really grown on him!<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 30px\">Connect with Chiebuka<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/chiebuka-onwuzurike-8aab60130\/\">Chiebuka&#8217;s LinkedIn
