About Me

I grew up in upcountry where i undertook my primary and secondary education. Later on i joined Kenyatta university for a bachelor's degree in Art and design.
I have managed to over come hardship in life by just believing in myself and believing in my ideas of doing things. This has help me achieve my life goals.
I started my own business back in campus when i realized there were a lot of opportunity online where one would earn money. The Idea of working online then came and i started offering my services online at upwork.com and 99Design.com.
My unique hobby is drawing , i loved drawing caricatures of people because most of us have different futures and that makes it interesting when you draw .

My Business

My main business is graphic design, Branding and Digital marketing. I am involved in offering services such as Designing and Printing of business cards, fyers, posters and marketing materials. I also do digital marketing, email marketing, online branding and online advertising.
I choose this type of business because of my passion in creativity, marketing and above all my educational background (Bachelor in Art and Design ) which helped me slot well in the field.
I use profits from the business in paying for my monthly bills, entertainment costs, self improvements and in reinvesting in the business.

Loan Proposal

i will use it for personal reason such as buying airtime and using it for my transportation cost so that my loan limit should grow and i i take a large loan
