Milestones

My road in life has taken me all over.
First I started a fundraising event at a early age.
then I experienced other people who enjoyed similar interests as myself.
then I started to venture out into the work force to make money in one of my areas of interest.
then I took on more management responsibilities in my occupation of interest.
then I started my own venture in one of my areas of interests and brought in others to help out.
then I tried to invent something that made my industry of interests a better place
then I explored how to re-invent myself to work smarter and not harder at the things I did with work
then I focused on how my past experiences could benefit others through participating in education.

Day to Day

They would witness an educator being paid to introduce each student to an entrepreneurial experience that would encompass all of the standardized learning disciplines. The entire day would be designed around show-and-tell moments where learning would be shared by vested team members and grades were no longer part of assessment. Socratic dialogue would introduce new learning paradigms and self-reflection would be the final aspect of each day of play in the classroom.

Advice for Getting Started

Here's the first step for high school students
