I wear a lot of professional hats including acting, singing and dancing. My joy is in the world of entertainment. I do karaoke and acting gigs in various entertainment establishments such as clubs, concerts, and theaters. I formed an interest in singing and acting when I was a little child, what with my elder sisters encouraging me. My mother also has a huge part in the professional singer/actress I am today. Having successfully raised five girls on a teacher's salary, she showed us that anything is possible as long as you stay true to yourself.
I started my own music concert called Speak Music that i have held a few times at the Alchemist in West lands and at the Kenya National Theater, among other gigs. I have a few songs out that look promising, as well as some t.v shows. I make my income from my singing and acting career that has grown over the past couple of years. Kenya, along with other countries, internationally, have a high demand for actors and musicians with great talent. My career is on its way to a higher plateau thanks to my creative talents. Currently, I make about 50,000 Kenyan shillings every month, that is on a slow month. My income is distributed between my bills, business and travel expenses.
This loan would help me at least pay half of my nest studio session. I am grateful I will be able to get out of a temporary jam and make some progress in my career. I believe this year I will be a hit in my country's music industry. The returns of my music will be huge, and zidisha will helping with a part of that success.
