1. A viable path I would like to follow after graduation:
After graduation, I plan to attend San Diego City College for two years and then transfer to San Diego State University to earn a bachelor’s degree in Business and Entrepreneurship. My long-term goal is to start my own company that combines creativity and community service.
2. Opportunities I received at e3 to prepare me for this path:
At e3, I was able to take classes like INCubatoredu, where I worked on creating a startup idea with my team and practiced pitching to an audience. I also had opportunities through Student Led Conferences to reflect on my growth, and through School Ambassadors to develop public speaking skills. These experiences gave me confidence in leadership, collaboration, and problem-solving.
3. Skills that will ensure I am successful:
The most important skills I will take with me are communication, critical thinking, and resilience. Communication will help me present ideas clearly and connect with others, critical thinking will help me solve problems in creative ways, and resilience will help me push through challenges. With these skills, I feel prepared to follow my college and career pathway.
