About Me

My name is Elizabeth Wambui Kiarie. I am a 30 years old lady living in Karen Nairobi. I hold a bachelor's degree in Education. I am a trained teacher in high school biology and chemistry. I acquired my undergraduate degree from St. Mary's University of Minnesota, USA, an affiliate university of the Catholic University of Eastern Africa (CUEA).

I am single in status. I live alone with no children. I graduated from the University in the year 2011. I got my first job with the ICEA Lion Insurance company along Mombasa road. I worked here as sales lady for one year. I was fired in November, 2013 because of doing things my way.

I left ICEA and looked for a job elsewhere. I found my second job with the International Corporate Research company in Upperhill Nairobi. ICR employed me for two yrs and I worked here as a Junior Research Officer.

My Business

When I found myself jobless, I decided to use my little savings to start a small business. During my university days, I got broke and my need for good upkeep pushed me into business venture.

I used to sell second hand clothes to my fellow girls in the hostels. This way I could make little and good pocket money. I therefore, had a clue about fashion, so I decided to run a small Boutique for ladies wear, along Bogani road in Karen Nairobi.

I started this in June 2015 and it is running to date. I have made some great steps since I opened. For instance, it has enabled me to be self reliant all this while and I have been able to care for my parents and my two siblings. I hope I Zidisha is an opportunity to make more financial steps. I look forward to further growth on this platform.

Loan Proposal

I hope to do my own clothe line one day. I am trying to save little by little to achieve this dream. I beleive your loan platform is one stone that will lift me up as I persue my talent
