She was previously at VAELL where she joined as a graduate trainee and grew to be a Regional Relationship Manager in a span of six months. She was tasked to handle among others; government leasing, credit and marketing.

Loan Proposal
I will use the loan.to finance my investment needs for purposes of expansion and creating room for more business. Part of it will be used to get more stock through imports & local purchases. I'll also create a website where people will be able to shop online, get to know the products offered as well as give personal reviews and comments.
Income Source
I have several sources of income incase the business fails. One of them is employment. I work for Rivieres Finance as a Business Development Manager full time. So incase of slow business i will still be able to repay my loan using my salary. Secondly, my business is purely online so it's not really affected by the current economic climate. I'm able to reach my clients wherever they are at the comfort of their homes.
