About Me
I was born on 8th January in 1981 in kamukuru village muran'ga county. I'm a second born of Mr Philip kamande and Mrs jecinta rugoru. I started my primary education at wamahiga primary school in the year 1988 then did my primary national examination in the year 1996. Then i joined muthithi secondary between the year 1997-2000 then i joined Thika polytechnic between the year 2003-2004 doing electronics course. After completing the course people in my village started asking me to repair their electronics appliances i did for 1year then my cousin who had a workshop in Nairobi asked me to join him in his workshop helping him repairing electronics appliances. We worked together for 5 years but he was not paying me well. Then i deside to go to Mombasa city to open my own workshop which is doing well. People hire like fishing. On of my children wants to be an engineer,the other on wants to be a soldier. I like swimming and reading Bible.

I use the profit to pay school fees for my children and home improvement.
