About Me
I was brought up in humble background by my parents in Kiserian Kajiado county. I did my primary and secondary school levels in Kiserian. Later I joined college and did the course on Food Production. I have been employed for the last 12 years and I later decided to quit and start my own hotel.
The uniqueness of our land and culture being a Maasai is that we have a rich culture that attracts tourists all over the world to see Maasai people and how they have preserved their culture.
I am a single mother of two children, a boy and a girl. My daughter would like to be doctor and my son a pilot.
My hobby is swimming and playing tennis
My Business
I provide fast foods and soft drinks. With the busy lifestyle, people prefer fast foods because they can take away and eat at their appropriate time.
I chose this business because of my career in Food production.
My typicals costs initially I started with a capital of Ksh100,000 because I had to buy jiko, friers, seats and tables, rent and renovations. Currently I use Ksh30,000 per month.
I use the profits I derive from my business to educate my children, pay house rent, and buy food
