I was born on 22nd August in 1986 at mazeras dispensary. Am a last born of Mr joseph Raya and Mrs Rachael Umazi. I started my primary education at mazeras primary school between the year 1991-1998. Then joined mazeras polytechnic doing tailoring and dress marking between the year 1999-2000. After completing my course i was employed as a machine operator in a textile company here at mazeras town between the year 2003-2009 when i came up with an idea of a business of selling fish which am doing up to now. Here at mazeras people like maize farming. My children wants to be doctors when they grow up. I like riding bicycle during my free time.

I sell frying fish. Many people here at mazeras are working in companies so they have no enough time to fry fish for themselves so when they come out from job they just pass buy buying frayed fish and go home for lunch or supper. I choose this kind of business because of high population here and it has a good profit. My typical cost and revenue is license 3500 KES per year. I use the profit for paying school fees for my children and daily meals.

I will buy 1 lorry of building chips at 100$, 20 bags of cement at 6.5$ each, 2 lorries of building sand at 3.5$ per lorry, 8 silling bored at 8$ each., woods for doing the silling at 100$, silling nails at 5$, digging and building a pit latrine at a cost of 400$, connecting water to the house at a cost of 150$ and connecting electricity to the house at a cost of 200$. It will increase my earning and peoples will have a house to rent. I expect to get 600$ rent per month.
