MY WORK STORY
After a short stint in employment as an IT expert, Timothy opted to try his hand in entrepreneurship. He tried his hand in several ventures before finally settling on freelance writing.
Writing has always been a hobby for me from a young age. As a young lad, I loved spinning stories using the written word. Later, as an adult, I embraced the art of using words to communicate; I initially did this through blogging on social forums.
I realized I could make money writing and I decided to go into writing as a side gig. The side gig eventually translated into my full-time job.
I started a content writing agency in 2017 on Upwork. The agency was legally registered in 2018 in Kenya. Today, with the help of my team I am able to deliver more output in different niches serving multiple clients across the globe.
A determined dedication to always produce quality and consistency for my clients has helped me have a successful content writing career. Having a dedicated super team to work with has also helped.
MY PERSONAL STORY
Working as a freelance writer has helped me have a flexible life and I am able to do several other things.
I work from home where I have the splendid company of my lovely wife Sally, who is also a writer. Working alongside my wife as a team has helped develop me, not only as a writer but in many other ways that would have otherwise been beyond me.
Writing for HomeGardenGuides has helped me transition into home improvement writing which I love and have been focused on ever since.
Apart from writing I am also hugely involved in championing for online job opportunities for the Kenyan youth. Kenya has a huge problem in youth unemployment. I believe that online job opportunities provide one of the best solutions to the national challenge.
I do a lot of training and mentorship activities around the country sensitizing and educating Kenyans on online job opportunities.
In 2019 I helped found the Online Professional Workers Association of Kenya (OPWAK), of which I am the Chairman.
Most of all I am a devoted Christian and I love spending time with the youth at church and engaging in other Christian edifying activities.
Fences and property lines are top factors that most people often overlook when buying homes. However, in New York, a fence that encroaches over the property line can be a huge source of contention, even if it’s by just a foot or two. It’s therefore important to know where your property line is and understand […]
When you are looking to jazz up your living room with a painting or hang your new flat-screen TV, you are going to need to know the weight limits of your drywall. The average ½ inch drywall can safely hold up to 60 pounds with a typical drywall screw mount. If you are able to […]
Drywall comes in different types, thicknesses, and sizes. The weight of one sheet of drywall is mostly determined by its size and thickness. Standard drywall of size 4’ x 10’ by ½’ weighs about 64 pounds while a 4’ x 12’ by ½’ drywall weighs about 77 pounds. As the size and thickness increase, so […]
Dangerous asbestos is commonly found in the mud or joint compound used in drywall and sheetrock installed in the nineties (1930s to 1980s). Living in a house with the compound could lead to accidental exposure that may trigger illness in the short or long term for occupants. Asbestos present in old drywall and sheetrock should […]
Mold spores can grow on or attach to a variety of surfaces under the right conditions. They release spores as a part of their reproduction cycle. These spores can be harmful if inhaled. Mold spores can live for an unlimited period on wet or damp surfaces and can survive airborne indefinitely. Mold spores need moisture […]
A crawl space is a non-living area that is highly susceptible to mold growth. Crawl space mold can be challenging to remove, and it can spread to other regions of the house if mold remediation isn’t adequately performed. Hiring a professional mold remediator remains the best option of completely (and safely) removing mold growing in […]
