About Me

My name is Edwin Gitau I live in Wangige, Kiambu county, growing up in the country limits me to growth and opportunities in that my extra curricular activities included looking after sheep and goats, but I managed to finish my primary education and joined high school which am grateful to have successfully completed at the graduate academy. later on, I enrolled at a technical college and did a diploma in electrical engineering. At the moment I work as a sales agent with a company called liberation properties Ltd.

My Business

I came across online freelancing i.e transcription which involves changing audio files into written files and article writing which involves, product reviews, content writing, creative writing through a friend and I would like to pursue this by training and become a full-time writer/transcriptionist. there are a number of online sites that offer this kind of opportunities i.e up work, transcribe me, go transcript, freelancer.com, and many others. The tools include a laptop, headphones, and steady internet. With this, i will be able to work in my own time and also make good money online as the world is increasingly becoming a global village.

Loan Proposal

I currently have headphones which are not in a good condition nor good quality, so i have to struggle while training for transcription. i need ones with quality sound and reception while i perfect the lessons am receiving from my tutors. with time I intend to buy my own laptop also through zidisha.

    I take this opportunity to thank zidisha for the consideration, i received the loan i had requested of ksh 1700 less the service fee and expediting charges. I plan to buy a modem for my freelancing job, thank you zidisha for the great job you are doing.

    The loan was to upgrade my hard disk to create more storage of data and files due to the nature of my work. i can now work on more raw data and my laptop does not hang or stall as before. Thank you zidisha now i have a lot of reference material at the click of a button. I look forward to apply for another loan to buy a wifi modem.

    I managed to upgrade my external hard disk though not completely that's why am seeking another loan from zidisha, this will a long way in improving my laptops' data handling capacity and storage. the loan was very helpful in kickstarting the upgrading.
