About Me

I was raised in rural kenya, in Nyanza province. I attended my studies in Nyanturago, high and i did not get good grades.so i started doing manual jobs at my homicile. I collected some moneies i started my small business of rearing poultry and

horticulture. by so doing the a mount the profits i got helped me fend ma famile.
The people of my village live simple lives and depend on agriculture for their day to day need. This is why i concentrate in agriculture so that i can give my children good education.
My son wants to be a pilot when he grows up and the other wants to be a mechanic.
During my free time i like singing in my church choir as well as helping chi;dren in the Sunday school classes. I heard of zidisha from friend and thought of trying it.

My Business

A part from the rearing of chicken and farming, i have started a business of selling grocery, and selling of second hand clothes in a trade center that is near my home. I opted for this business because people that live in this small town do not have farms , so i do supply them with farm produce such as kales, tomatoes, onions, and

sometimes milk from the farm. I chose this kind of business because it is easy to start as it requires a small capital., moreover most of the things that i sell i get them directly from my farm.

I use the profits from my business for personal development and for paying fees for my children
