I am a Kenyan young man aged 22years old single and rooted from a family of four having two sisters and a brother. I learnt at Migosi primary school where I did my K.C.P.E and later joined Olembo boys high school where I did my K.C.S.E .
Currently am enrolled at The Kisumu Polytechnic where am taking a part time Diploma course Business Management where I attend my lectures in the evenings.
I started practicing business when I completed my Secondary education in 2013 where I operated my uncle’s retail shop for 5months then I started my own retail shop with the wages my uncle used to give me and summed up with some money my parents gave me. I operated my shop from 6.00am in the morning to 4.30pm. I close shortly to attend my lectures from 5.00pm to 7.00pm.I later open again by 7.20pm until 10.00pm.This makes my shop unique because I close late and open up very early. I also offer guddies to my customers who come to the shop with children therefore most children even come alone to the shop.I get between 3 to 4 US Dolars per day from sales of my food stuff and drinks.
