I was born into a poor family in a small town in Zambia, My father worked as a soldier.
I went to Government Schools all the way to Form 5.
In between i was forced to go through a private school, which by then was considered as laughable.
I faced stigma and belittlement in the small community in lived.
I only over came all that when i started passing with Distinctions and beating even all the peers who had gone to Government Schools. I then had to gain my won recognition to one of the top Government Schools.
I started my business in 2015 after realising that working was not giving me the desired results.
My land has a unique people comprising 73 ethnic groupings.
My children all have different ambitions, Doctor, Teacher, Actor, Pastor, Nurse with none of then pursuing my career (Accounting).
My hobby is Painting and drawing.
My business is Professional Business Advisory Services.
The services are on demand because of the importance they have on each and every business , new , established or even upcoming.
TAX services, Accounting, Business Plans for Banks purposes, Linkages to Auditors and other platforms to complete the business profile is paramount.
