Hi!..am Isaac bornand raised up from a rural African set up in a family of 7 children where am the second born. Life was tough but despite all the odds I managed to get education up to class 8 where I dropped out and went into matatu business as a tout for more than 6 years. I saved enough to go back to school for my secondary education and enrolled myself in a local secondary day school where I managed to score B plain in my KCSE with support from the church and we'll wishers however i didn't qualify for university. I went into being employed in a shopomill where.i worked for 2 years with other side hustles like rearing rabbits for sale,pool tables game and was able to raise enough money to study CPAs up.to section 6. Getting a white color job has been tedious with low pay more than used to.earn from my hustler and therefore am now into agribusiness where am currently farming yams and sweetpotatoes with rabbits and pool tables being additional revenue stream. I intend to extend my farming and reach the regional market where sweet potatoes and yams are scarce
Am working as a freelancer on accounts and taxation consultant, farming and pool game business to raise money for my small family of 2 kid since I believe I can change the world for my family and other children who are being brought up in the same set up I was brought up in as I see a bright future ahead. Farming is the backbone of most of the economies and I believe it's one of the areas less populated and one that have alot.of potential untapped
The loan will enable me continue with the registration and partly clear my tuition fees at KCA university Nairobi for my Bachelor of commerce degree and at the same time if enough i also want to combine with a professional course in systems audit that is the certified information systems analyst course at the same college
