About Me

I graduated in year 2009 and with my little savings that I had gotten from doing some odd jobs opened a computer Garage dealing with computer and phone repair in 2012 after unsuccessful attempts to secure a white collar job .In Dec 2013 I extended my business to offer money transfer service populary known as Mpesa and Sale of phones and accessories.I plan to start a cyber soon when things sober up.

My business is located on a busy center next to Chuka University and with a lot of students over 3000 who have either a combination of a phone and a laptop or a phone and a desktop you can only imagine the traffic that comes to my garage. The fact that most of them are fast timers with computers they are bound to be challenged by either their hardware or software of their computers and more often than not they find their way to my garage for either a software upgrade or a hardware change
With the changes in technology I also get many students coming to consult me over various ICT related issues and I always charge them a little fee ,I also do mobile phone repair and with everyone in the area with a mobile phone. The business is doing well.
