About Me

I am an entrepreneur and a software engineer. I have schooled at different schools like Nyeri High School, Strathmore University and the University of Nairobi.

I have a strong passion for information communication technology (ICT) and use it to provide several solutions to my clients and community. I spend enough time updating myself with the latest technologies to make me a better software developer. I also have some certified public accountant (CPA) training which helps me in my day to day running of my businesses.

I believe so much in mentoring and in offering guidance especially to the upcoming young people. To this end, i usually attend and even host some programming groups and camps.

During my free time, i participate in some community development either through some NGO's or by visiting/aiding the less fortunate people like the sick children in some hospitals.

My Business

I run a legally registered Information Technology company called Kensoft Limited dealing mostly with web and mobile based application development. I provide mobile solutions like corporate bulk sms solutions and payments, travel/hospitality booking systems, web development, domain registration, web hosting and software solutions to both corporate and individual clients.

Loan Proposal

Due to more work at work at my disposal, i would like to hire and extra person especially an intern to help me do some tasks. By doing this, i hope to achieve two things;
a) Become more efficient as i will be able to delegate some tasks to another person.
b) Offer some form of experience to the interns so that he/she can benefit from the skills gotten from the job.

    I reminded him to settle his loan instalment immediately and update the lenders too.

    I contacted Gitau and he shared with me that his clients are delaying to pay him on time that's why he is delaying to make repayment. He agreed to adjust the installment amount and make repayment by next month.

    Dear Lenders,

    Thank you for your kind help to me. I will diligently use the cash to hire an additional staff member to help me with the workload. May God grant you more for your needs and to enable you help others in need like me.

    Dear Lenders,

    Thanks alot for your continued support. Your help has been truly helpful in helping me achieve my goals and to efficiently run my business.

    I managed to buy two different computers with the help of the last loan (one running Windows and the other running on Linux). With these two different computers i am able to develop and test my clients work to their satisfaction using the different environments.

    May blessings be upon you and may the Almighty provide you to cater for your needs and to help other deserving individuals like me.

    Yours sincerely,

    Steve

      Belated New Year's Greetings, and thank you for the update (suffering my own share of delaying suppliers right now, so you have all my sympathy)! More than half paid back; it won't be long now.

      All the best,
      Mårten
