About Me

Due to meager pay I earned as a teacher , that could not take care of my needs ,I resigned as a teacher and trained as a a beautician and hair dresser. At first it was tough ,but I managed to complete the training and used my savings to open up the saloon. The saloon business is doing well and I am able to take care of my bills comfortable.
I come from western Kenya , I come from the luyha community and the most unique and interesting culture is the culture we where the youths are thought of the community values.
my children want to be pilots when they grow up.They all love plane and would wish to pilot them when they grow up
I love watching movies and interacting with new people during my free time.

Loan Proposal

I would save up to $80 a month . Thank you
