Minku founder Kunmi was on a computer science research and consultancy journey when she rediscovered her love for making things by hand.

Born in Lagos, Nigeria, she holds a masters degree in computer science from Virginia Tech (2007) and graduated summa cum laude with a computer science bachelors degree from Howard University in 2005. A teaching assistant while at Virginia Tech, she also worked as an information architect/user experience designer upon graduation. Prior to these, she attended high school at Queen’s College, Lagos. There, she won the fine art prize every year.

Minku items are characterized by their subtle use of cultural elements of Nigerian life, resulting in a fresh sub-Saharan aesthetic with transcontinental appeal.

Two new Minku handbag collections are released each year – eleven collections so far.
