About Me
My name is Samantha, and I was born in Kitui County of Eastern Kenya. I am the first born in a family of six members. My father is a policeman working for Kenya Police Service and my mother is a farmer.
I went to primary school and later joined secondary school for my high school education. I then got a clerical job for a company dealing with food processing.
I later relocated to Mombasa where I got a job dealing with music production. I worked there for two years and then decided to leave and started my own business.
I am a hardworking person and a go-getter who believes in accomplishing what I set out to do.
My Business
After working in the music production business for two years, I felt that I had gained enough experience and decided to open my own business, which I have been running for the last two years.
I have overcome the initial challenges and I am now well-rooted in this field. My work mainly deals with mass production of CDs and DVDs for various local artists and selling the same. The business has a lot of competition, but I am getting a fair share of of the market. I aspire to take my business to the next level and I would like to take advantage of this opening through Zidisha to realize this dream.
Loan Proposal
If given this loan, I will use the entire amount to buy a computer to help me with my work. I usually spend a lot of time going to cyber cafes to send emails and to download music material that artistes normally send to me.
The computer will also help me in doing music conversions to different formats like from raw form to mp3 format. I am currently unable to do this since I lack a computer. This is a void that will easily be filled by the computer.
A computer capable of handling this job will cost me about $250 and this loan I will be able to top up what I have already saved for this venture. The loan will help me realize my dream much sooner since I have been saving towards buying this machine for a long time.
