About Me

Am a diploma holder at Thika technical training institute with a credit pass. Went to Muthiga girls and attained a mean grade of C+. I joined college after doing several small business for 3yrs to get college fee which I managed to hit my target. College expenses was a bit challenging and during my first year, I visited a family friend at Mombasa and she gave me a sony camera she was not using.
Immediately, I started taking photos at cheaper cost and at the end of the day, I would manage to cater for my bills till I completed my course.
I wanted to do medicine related course but due to lack of funds I ended up doing an Applied science course.
A mother of one, hardworking and very determined. Am self displined guarded by my ethics.
Far from that I love swimming and doing charity work by myself or through Rotary International.

My Business

I am in cereals business( selling all varieties of grains)and money agent(Mpesa and airtel money). After tarmacking for 2yrs to secure a job but in vain, I came up with an idea of starting my own business and I settled on cereals after so many considerations (one being I like farming so much). The cereal and mobile money agents business do well since currently many people do mobile money transfers and consumption of cereals is very high.
I am also aiming to tender to institutions for cereals(majorly maize, beans,green grams, rice and some special grams)
I lend capital from relatives to start a business which is doing fine.
The profit I get from my business use it for some investments, pay shool fees and at least help me do charity work which is my passion

Loan Proposal

Would like to buy stock for my cereals shop.
This will help me to expand my business little by little and in turn be a distributor for cereals in the locals. It'll will also attribute to higher profit margins which will help to open up some other joints for the same and help in some charity work.
