Am third in family of Four. Born in Nakuru County and started my Primary Education at Nakuru West Primary School later shifted to Mwireri Primary School Subukia. I later Joined Maryland Secondary School and then transferred to Kieni Secondary School.I joined African institute for Computer course and later started a course in Information and Technology at Kenyatta University. i was brought up in a poor background that i had to work on weekend and raise part of my school fees. also i was sponsored at University by NGOs.getting a job in kenya is very hard so i had to start my job, i bought second handcomputer and a photocopy machine . where i come from people live to believe in what they do. all of our us we have a small piece of land this makes us busy not even concentrating on development or outside. I have got one kid who loves music and maths he tells me that he want to start his own bank not being employed by bank. am sure i will do anything to make his dream come true. on my free time i love reading business books and taking my family out.
My Business
I operate a cyber in Nakuru town where i have 10 computers which i just bought new ones from zidisha loan., most of thing nowadays are done through internet so there is great demand of internet and people love fast computers and and a good internet. i chose this type of business because i love inquiring new ideas from the internet and i noticed that most of the people want to be in digital world. i usually make Kes 120,000 to kes 150,000 per month. i pay rent of KES 15,000 and kes 5,000 for my internet and kes10,000 for my employee. I use my profit for my family and for my kid school fees, and save because i want to open another cyber and i want to buy a digital printer. Am also planning on importing computers and sell them in Kenya.
Loan Proposal
Hello zidisha team, my 3rd loan am planning on purchasing a new A3 digital printer which goes for 150000 with my savings and help of zidisha i will make it. We usually send most of our printing to the City. if i buy it people will be willing not to travel, i will be able to beat all my competitors and increase my profit. May God bless you all. Thankyou
