About Me

I began my academic journey as a young boy, culminating in the completion of my KCPE in 2007 with a commendable B+ grade. Despite this achievement, financial constraints delayed my entry into secondary school. After two challenging years, I finally enrolled and completed my KCSE in 2013. Tragically, during this period, I lost my mother, who had been supporting my secondary education through her small business. Determined to continue my studies, I persevered and secured admission to Kenyatta University. Initially, I relied on bursaries and part-time self-employment to finance my education. However, when the bursaries ceased, I transitioned to full-time entrepreneurship to sustain my academic pursuits. Today, I successfully balance my business endeavors while financing my education through a school-based program. With unwavering dedication, I am on track to graduate with a degree program within a year. Despite the challenges and setbacks along the way, I am immensely proud of my journey and deeply grateful to Zidisha for empowering me to turn my aspirations into reality.

My Business

My first training was on videography at Abedys Media Studios. After mastering the art of camera work, I decided to embark on a new adventure. Transitioning from capturing moments at events to running a tuck shop felt like a natural progression. Now, I spend my days serving customers with a smile, offering them a variety of snacks, drinks, and essentials. While my focus has shifted from the lens to the counter, my passion for entrepreneurship and providing for others remains as strong as ever.

Loan Proposal

My intention is to use this loan plus my saving to buy a new hp 15 co i3 laptop worth $370 for the purpose of editing commercial video projects shot from various occasions.
This will help me hasten the process of editing these projects and consequent faster delivery of seevice to my clients. This too will help me expand the scope of my work due to faster, efficient and high quality video output all which will be translated to higher income for me and to help my younger brother further his campus education.
With the help of my donor funding my projecg, my expectation as I focus on using this laptop is to increase my monthly income by at least $20 from what I am able to earn now.
