I like to think that my ability to focus and make their success as important as my own has prepared me for managing and inspiring others. When I was young, I never felt like I was alone, even after our father left. I always felt like I was a part of a greater good, a greater family. My mother instilled this way of thinking in me and I believe that we were all able to overcome strife by holding onto each other and never forgetting that we were all in the same boat together.

I am also able to change the way I communicate with people in order to reach them on their respective levels.

Our club coordinated many guest speakers throughout the school year, came up with new and innovative ways to raise money while also providing experience in beginning new ventures, and offered resources to students who were interested in beginning a new venture but didn't have the resources to do so. The Entrepreneurship Society taught me that innovation ideas and leadership can transform not just organizations but the world at large.

I feel that I am ready for business school because of my personal experiences related to having to "grow up" before my time as well as because of my experiences in extracurricular activities like basketball and the Entrepreneurship Society. All of these experiences have made me the person that I am today and I feel both ready and excited about the challenge of business school. I have always felt that business is where I wanted to be and management feels like a natural direction to go in......
