3A- Your Entrepreneurship Story

My entrepreneur story goes deep, but I would only touch on the surface of how I was introduced to the industry. Growing up and mainly throughout high school, I would always meet individuals who were interested in starting their own business or on the verge of. However, all of these individuals had one thing in common, they thought that starting a business was just as simple as making up a business  name and starting the business. What they failed to understand was all of the hard work and planning on paper that it took before you can even get your business off the ground. Many people would ask me, what do you know about being an entrepreneur? I always had the privilege to respond with the fact that I was fortunate enough to take an entrepreneurship class in high school that was a taught by an entrepreneur herself, Ms. Meziadu. A professor that was very informed in what it took to start a business; she had a few business of herself, but you would never know because she had that entrepreneurial mindset of never talking about her businesses, but allowing her businesses to talk for her. I was able to spend two years of my high school career with Ms. Meziadu, through this time I was able to gain valuable skills that helped me understand what being an entrepreneur is all about.

I enrolled in this class because I want to continue learning about entrepreneurship and developing my skills so that one day I can start a business of my own. Understanding entrepreneur fundamentals is not only good for business, but it is a skill that can help you get through many situations in life and help in any industry that you work in. Therefore, I am excited to learn and see what this class can offer in my journey to success.
