I went to Kigogo-ini primary school in 1995 and later went to Kiriti secondary school in 2003.in 2011 I joined Outspan College and pursued certificate in information and technology. In 2012 my father passed away and my mother was left alone to struggled with me in raising school fees and I finished with a lot of financial difficulties since also my sister was behind me in high school whereby she relied on borrowing loans in local women self help groups luckily enough God made me through .After I finished my college studies I was employed in as a waiter in a hotel and due to passion in ICT sector I saved some cash and I was able to purchase two computers and I started my own business so as to make the ends meet.
