I’m a creative problem solver. Give me a problem and I will have 1500 different ideas on how to solve it. Most will be dumb, but there will be that one gem in there that’s a winner. Most people aren’t patient enough to wait for me to find it. Their loss.
I speak to myself aloud (like they do in soap operas). I stare at myself in the mirror way longer than I probably should. I love sunsets, a lot. I am a hopeless romantic. It’s a topic of ridicule among my guy friends, but then again what are friends for if not to poke fun at your softest spots? I get mild cases of celeb fever. I tell you these things because you will discover them anyway within five minutes of meeting me, if you ever have the misfortune of meeting me that is.
I make a living in banking. My Linkedin page is pretty impressive, but don’t let it fool you. And though it doesn’t pay the bills (yet), I thoroughly enjoy bringing people together to exchange ideas. I enjoy it so much i do it for free here.
I’m 34 years old and in that short time have successfully convinced someone’s daughter to procreate two daughters with me. Her name is Vera. The eternal Love of my Life. Their names are Imani and Morani. I know, we are creative like that. I talk about them a lot, so please get used to it. I always think getting daughters was God’s little joke on me for my youthful philandering ways. They are adorable, naughty and healthy, and that banking thing i mentioned takes care of them quite alright so i’m not complaining.
What else Alex? Oh yes, I was born in Kapenguria, grew up in Ol’kalou, schooled in Kasuku, and didn’t touch a computer until I was in Form 4. I like saying that, makes me feel like a rags to middle class riches story lol!
Here’s a list of things I care about;
- God – Him, everything he is, everything he created, every word he says in his holy Book, did I say Him? He’s my good good Father. No offense Dad.
- Family – Vera and the girls, they are my world, i’d die for them, i’d lose a body part for them, after God, they are the most important element in my life. A close third is my parents, siblings, extended family and friends-turned-family who I love dearly.
- Outdoors – If it was possible to live in forests without raising eye brows, I’d do so.
- Entrepreneurial societies – I believe entrepreneurial thinking is what our Continent needs more of, and in my own little way i’m trying to foster more of it.
- Fitness – I’ve had surgery done on both knees, and for 5 years couldn’t do any sporty activity. In 2021 I experienced faith based healing, and my knee, which the Docs had nearly given up on was fully cured, and I’m now making up for lost time.
- Whisky (or Whiskey if you want to get all Irish on me) – I’m no connoisseur, but I’m getting there, one bottle at a time.
Alright, now let’s have some fun, shall we?
