boast of hailing from a reputable business family, but the environment in which I grew is one that reflect a people committed in their own small ways in earning their daily bread by conducting small enterprises. Such ranged from selling perishable goods (fruits) to sweets and groundnuts in the streets of local markets in Western parts of Kenya. Being a child of my own environment, there is no way I could not have been mentored in the ways of our fore fathers. In fact, my mother was in grocery business and during weekends, she would invite me to accompany her to the market place.This experience instilled in me the desire to own and manage my own business someday, yet I knew too well that the business world today is more complex than ever before. This complexity requires more education, and with this in mind, I am applying for the Bachelors degree in International Sales and Marketing Management. My career goal is to work in an international company as I sit in the board of my own. In such an environment, I would be in position of applying knowledge and skills acquired in this program. I am interested in traveling and getting to know different cultures and people from various countries around the world. I am also driven by inherent desire to develop professionally through international exposure which is free from partisan issues quite prominent in some cultures. Driven by inherent desire to excel and do well in business world, I enrolled for an advanced diploma in Business Management in Kenya. Through these studies, I gained some theoretical background about accounting and management in general. I successfully completed the program with upper credit. The knowledge, skills and attitude I acquired in my studies enabled me to start my own business in Electronics (MOBILAB Cellular Communications) in Nairobi(capital city of Kenya). Within a span of six years, I had moved from my childhood grocerybusiness in rural areas to electronics in urban area. Operating this business for a period of three years, I have had my own lessons to learn mainly from challenges (social-political and economic). These (challenges) have not only continued to shape my business vision but call for innovative thinking to compete favorably in the global market place. Besides running my personal business, I have had other valuable experiences. In the year 2008, I served as a sales and marketing officer with New Life Youth Ministry. This gave me more exposure in customer relations and marketing strategies. Currently, I am serving as a credit manager, an experience which is equally challenging and demanding. Through studies and experience, I have acquired quite valuable skills. These include management, analytical, computer and interpersonal skills. My work exposure has continued to sharpen not only my management skills but also supervisory and organizational skills. In my studies I was exposed to both qualitative and quantitative analytical methods. I was able to apply these skills in my research project entitled factors affecting grocery business at Rongai, Kajiado District in Kenya. In Market place, I have been able to apply these skills, analysing market trends and dynamics. I am well equipped with the knowledge of computer packages such as MS Word, MS Excel, MS Access and Internet and E-mail. I am an open-minded and friendly person who is interested in international aspects and intercultural relations. Moreover, people, especially other students, describe me as a team player who

cares about his group members. I am ambitious and like to handle challenging tasks and to take the responsibility for it. Therefore, I would enjoy studying at your university which has a high proportion of international students. It is possible to get to know people from more than one country. In normal circumstance, this would require a world tour. Furthermore, I am keen on looking beyond my own nose to learn from other nationalities and cultures. I am looking forward to receiving the opportunity to study at your university and to make a great contribution to the university community and the world at large. Yours Sincerely, [Signature] [Name]
