Keshon's Story

My passion is entrepreneurship.

I was watching a television show called Shark Tank where young entrepreneurs would try to get a "Shark" to invest in their business using their own money. This grabbed my attention immediately because this is every kid's dream: to grow up and be rich and famous. This is my dream too; I want to support my family for generations to come. I have high hopes and dreams for myself, and I plan to accomplish each and every one of them.

By attending the National Youth Leadership Forum on Business Innovation, I will develop my passion for entrepreneurship by networking with those who have an extensive background in this field. This program will also help me get started in understanding more about entrepreneurs, their jobs, and how to actually become one and be good at. I really look forward to attending this program and becoming more passionate about entrepreneurship.

A Note from Mr. Cummins, Keshon's Mentor

"Keshon has experienced many hardships growing up, and I think it says a lot about him as a young adult that he is able to stay focused. Since the first day I met Keshon, he has always had a strong interest in the business and tech communities. Attending National Youth Leadership Forum on Business Innovation will help him get a stronger understanding of the business community and would continue to drive his development. I truly believe Keshon is the perfect candidate for this program."
