About Me
My name is Mourice Odhiambo. I'm 26 years old and a second born in a family of 6. Growing up was not so easy for me because I had to sacrifice a lot for my younger siblings. As a young man I loved listening to music especially hip-hop, and I knew that I would one day become a Dj in Kenya.
After clearing my High School education I couldn't further my studies because I had to let my parents take care of the younger ones. So I did small jobs and raised small cash to buy a small Dj machine and a laptop. I started to train myself with the help of a friend who is a Dj and finally I became good and now I get invites to perform in events and clubs.
The income I get I use it for my upkeep. save a little for college and help my parents to pay school fees for my siblings.
My Business
My Business is not doing so bad but I need to invest more in better machines and sound systems to provide my customers with the best. Every weekend I get called to perform in weddings, corporate events, birthdays and parties but at times I'm limited because I don't have all the best machines to Dj with.
In future, I'm planning on starting an entertainment company where I get to provide Dj services, MC services, hiring my sound systems and open a Dj and music Academy.
The longest journey starts with a stride and this is just a beginning for me. I'm willing to learn so that i can be the best in what I do.
