About Me

I grew up in a family of two with a single mom, she raised both of us without the help of our father, she had a business and that's were i got my first motivation from.
I did my senior high school at Kitwe Boys High, i don't know how i used to pass my exams because i wasn't interested in school stuff until i reached my final year (G.12) - thats when i took a moment and had to think that, if i don't pass just this one exam, then i have wasted 12 years of my life and eventually i became a very serious kid, i started studying and managed to pass my exams.
I love to create stuff, create cartoons, to photograph, in-short i love art.

My Business

I started my blogging career in 2010 when and in 2011 a blog on called Zambian Music Blog to write about news in the Zambian entertainment and i somehow i was thinking i am not going to manage to push the blog this far because i was unemployed with no computer and no money for hosting. Just after a year of launching the blog, it was shut down due to high traffic, i needed to upgrade but i had no funds. A year after i started working as a waiter i re-branded the website back, this time on a new domain. It is now the biggest blog in Zambia. I quit my job as a waiter 2 years ago and i have concentrated on trying make my blog into a multi-million business through advertisement.

Loan Proposal

My media production has been growing each day that passes which means more workers are needed to handle customer service and the need to employ one more worker has been knocking.
I will use this loan to buy a desktop computer and build up another computer desktop for the incoming employee.
The whole process of buying a computer and a seat is costing about $300.
