I was first exposed to entrepreneurship when I was in high school and my cousins decided to start a non-profit organization called Susie’s Knee Project. The idea came from when we were on vacation in Jamaica and my aunt fell and shattered her knee. When rushed to the hospital, they were shocked to find inadequate conditions. After coming back to the states, they were inspired to arrange soccer fundraisers to raise money in order to purchase medical supplies and equipment to send back to that exact same hospital my aunt was admitted to. In collaboration with them, I conducted the social media marketing and constructed parts of the website. Through this experience, I learned more about entrepreneurship and my awareness of having a business mind.
By taking ENT3003, I hope to grow my skills not only as a businesswoman, but as an individual as well. I’m considering minoring in entrepreneurship so this class is the first step! I wish to gain some real-world skills and learn how to be more aware of my surroundings and how to utilize what’s around me to create something better.
