About Me
My full names Maureen kerubo i was born and raised in a small village in the Nyanza province its one of the 8 province in my country Kenya,
I schooled at Rusinga primary school after my final examination i proceeded to Nyakach girls high school.
I faced lots of challenges looking for a job after my college, I tried to search for jobs online when one day i got this job on freelance platform to fill a spreadsheet, This was my first job having basic knowledge in information technology made it easier for me to tackle this kind of jobs.
My client was impressed with the job and from their she started sending more jobs of the same.
I then joined into a online course with Alison online courses and advanced my skills slowly, In the beginning i had hardship with calculations using Microsoft Excel to do calculations was a problem after taking the course i managed to do it so well.
My land is fool of fish as i live near lake Victoria were i get fish at a cheaper price.
I like swimming fishing and traveling.
My Business
I offer spreadsheet filling services for two clients under freelance platform i decided to concentrate with few clients so to do a good job and finish my job in time.
My clients are friends and one linked me to the other they have lots of jobs that i even have to give some to my friend when i run out of time.
This job is all about being online and making bids once a client is used to you he will be emailing you in advance to ask you to bid his job, This makes it easy for me to get jobs.
I make an average of 50 us dollars a week and spend on intern-ate charges and raising basic needs.
I support my siblings with the money buy school materials like pens and books.
Loan Proposal
Granted the loan of 140 us dollars after deductions i will remain with 100 us dollars this amount i will top up to my saving of 120 us dollars make the total amount 220 us dollars and use to buy a hp laptop at a cost of 220 us dollars.
I will stop going to the cyber to work and will now be working from my home and i will also start working at night as now am limited to working only during the day.
I expect to increase my typimg speed and work load and make a increase of income of about 20 percent.
