Personal Statement Seth Amimo
I hold a voluminous potential of career skills and writing experience. After achieving a Diploma in Civil Engineering from Kisumu Polytechnic in 1999, in Kisumu City. I entered the workplace in the engineering field of building and construction in a small town known as Kericho town. At the same time, I was involved in active volunteering, for several local schools, working with locally elected representatives, and participating in several community led self-help groups to preserve and reclaim our surrounding which had gone through economic hard times and were experiencing poverty and white-collar crime. In 2006, I moved my family to Nairobi City where I started my own academic writing business, which I have managed successfully for over 6 years. To broaden the magnitude of services rendered by the writing business, I joined Nairobi University in 2008 and studied a Diploma in Computer Science, earning my Diploma Certificate, in December 2009. My computer training prepared me to design, develop, and implement website development, graphic design, digital technologies and writing knowledge with respect to freelance work. I presently use this training to formulate and employ technology to the freelance writing business.
The prosperous account as a self-employed freelance person highlights, the organizational and supervisory capabilities and talents I possess in freelance writing and clients relations. Clients come in a diversity of forms and sizes, many are easy to work with, while some may be more demanding, mandating extra patience and understanding, and comprehending how to meet their individual needs and win their trust is essential to any successful freelance business. I have mastered how to manage multiple projects concurrently, how to foresee problems and apply proactive solutions, meet deadlines, and guarantee quality services.

The reality that I endured, and even succeeded where others have failed, speaks volumes about the issue of my discipline, self-motivation, dedication and determination to an enterprise where the payoff may be far off from the glimpse of eye. These abilities, would be helpful, not just in business, but in the classroom as well. Furthermore, as evidenced by the certificate I attained while conducting the freelance business, I’m never weary of discovering new things, developing new skills, and undertaking new projects. I have always shown a strong interest in writing, having read widely, and at this point in my life I would like to continue doing freelance writing, employing the talent and knowledge I have amassed over a long period, to the existing and future clients.
Clearly, education is vital to the success of everyone in today’s life, and I have reached a point in my own career path where I can now lend my services to this serious endeavour. I have accumulated a sizeable degree of writing background and skills, that would be instrumental assets in writing. I presume that the tasks assigned to writers go beyond simply writing a single academic discipline. The ever-expanding array of tasks allocated to writers is daunting, while the level of expectations is constantly rising. I am confident the training I received in the college together with my professional employment experience will empower me to undertake the writing challenges i may face in my future endeavours.
