I was born and raised in the central province, I studied to to high school level due to financial problems that was facing my family, My life was full of mixed challenges and after revealing that i cant proceed with education i started searching for jobs in the private sector.
I got my first job were i used to be a supervisor for laborers at the industrial area for a baking company.
