About Me

My name is Maggie Nguyo, born and bred in Kenya. I am a lawyer by profession. I studied Law at Warwick University, did my Masters in Banking and Finance Law at the London School of Economics and a Development Studies Masters at the University of Sunderland.

After studying Law in England, I went back to Kenya to do the Bar so that I could start earning cash. Real hard cash! The exams were tough but I made it. I, together with many others got crowned by the Chief Justice and became ‘Advocates of the High Court of Kenya’.

I later got a job as an in-house lawyer for Kenya Hotels. I enjoyed working there and the pay was good too but I always wanted to do something more. I have always enjoyed concept creation and developing ideas into something tangible.

In the past, I had developed many concepts. Some worked and some were outright flops. But all taught me a thing or two about myself, people and life. I never gave up in trying....well that was something else I discovered about myself – I’m quite a determined person.

I decided to go into online business for the simple fact that it was quite flexible and less demanding. At the time, I had a lovely cousin who showed me the ropes and I was quite happy to learn from him. The website you see now, is a result of my the different business I tried in Kenya, my love for Kenya and passion for travel.

Going into this business is amongst the best things that I have done for myself. It has opened me up to a new way of doing things. It has given me the space I needed to develop ideas and bring them into fruition, it has given me the place where I can say - I am in pursuit of my full potential!

With that, I would like to encourage you to do that which you burn with passion for. If business is your thing, then go for it will total zeal and knowledge. Do not let yourself be hindered by your past experiences or definitions of yourself by others.

...............GO FOR YOUR GOLD!!
