About Me

I grew up in upcountry with my parents who struggled very hard to see that I go through education. Being the first born son in a family of eight, I made sure that I did not disappoint my parents. I studied hard and passed my primary education, went to local secondary school, passed and joined Egerton University for my bachelor's education where I graduated with Bachelors degree in Business and Management.
Despite being an undergraduate, I could not secure a job and opted for self-employment.

My Business

After failing to secure white collar job in line with what I learnt, I decided to venture into the world of freelancing, specifically online writing. This job has huge potential and one can make a good living out of it. I have been doing it for sometime but my aim is to expand my business. Buy laptops and work with others too.

Since I have not been at a position to purchase my own computer/ laptop, I have been doing this work in a borrowed computer at my friend's place. This has numerous challenges as there is no proper planning due to numerous inconveniences.

Online work is available but it is good when one has his own computer or laptop and internet connection so that I can work more conveniently from my house. This will give me more freedom, do a lot of assignments and in turn earn good income and expand by emoploying many youths who have no job at the moment.

Loan Proposal

This loan will act as my stepping stone to realizing my dreams. I have been dreaming of being independent and do my work in a free and secure environment. After reaching my intended credit limit, I will be able to own my own machine, work independently and realize my dream.

I am a hard worker and knows the importance of building one's reputation. I know what I want in life and so will make sure I use the money wisely and also repay my loan promptly.
