Bio

I have always possessed a passion for people who may be indigent and have a need for legal representation. In my ambition to in some way make a difference in the lives of these people, I will bring my natural capabilities to be hardworking, focused, committed, and fair in the pursuit of justice. During my high school education, I was able to achieve academic excellence with a GPA of 3.5 currently; before matriculation, I am working diligently to increase my GPA even more. One of my goals is to pursue a Bachelor’s Degree in the academic area of the Criminal Justice Program at Clark Atlanta University. It is my desire to become a criminal justice major and to work diligently to bring that goal to fruition in order to make a difference in the lives of disadvantaged people. My drive to succeed and the skills that I have amassed in working in the customer service industry have given me great insight into the diversity of people. Through my high school coursework, I have demonstrated intelligence and worked tirelessly to gain the knowledge that will help me to pursue the career of becoming a Central Intelligence Agency agent within the law enforcement community, which, in turn, will give me the opportunity to serve my country, as well. As a woman of color, I feel that I will bring compassion and fairness to people through my chosen career.

    Community service involvement is important because volunteering teaches people of all ages and backgrounds compassion and understanding. It is not only about helping the community but also making a difference in someone's life. When I do community service, it helps me grow and build connections mentally, physically, and emotionally. One thing I like about community service is that there are opportunities to improve and leave your mark on your global and local community. Volunteering and putting on service events can be used as a way to advocate for causes that you are personally passionate about. Community service volunteering can also be the avenue to explore areas that you express interest in. Volunteering is something that has no time limit; I can volunteer as much or as little as I like or have time for and still feel some type of fulfillment from it. Not only is community service fun and rewarding, but volunteering looks great on my resume or my college application. Sometimes community service is even required for high school graduation.Volunteering or community service provides me with a perfect opportunity to become closer to the community I live in. Community service broadens my horizons by helping me understand the needs of the society and the population I am trying to help through the project I am volunteering on. Reading or hearing about issues is not quite the same as getting personally involved. It brings me closer to my family and relatives in need, gives me firsthand experience and understanding of the conditions they are in. Not only would I be helping the ones in need, but I would also be able to meet some other volunteers. This benefit of community service is especially important if I am new in an area. Ways to meet my neighbors shows them how eager I am to improve my community. In addition, I would invite my friends to do community service with me and through it, further strengthen my relationship and have fun at the same time. Thus, it is a valuable experience for improving and practicing how to socialize in diverse surroundings. On the other hand, students are advised to do community service in order to get work-related knowledge and skills. At the same time, this increases the chances of me getting a job since my community involvement creates good references for potential employers. Volunteering draws my family members closer together, forging new bonds through shared experiences outside normal day-to-day routines. They say parents, children, and other relatives who volunteer together also learn more about each other while experiencing new activities. Overall, doing community service really helps make a difference in the world. It also changes me and succeeds for the better in life. Whatever I choose to do, volunteering and community service can benefit both my community and my family.

    Passion helps me set a solid foundation for my business and establish core values. Passion gives me the motivation and confidence that I need to deliver my mission and purpose for what I do and why I do it. Passion helps me network with the right people who share similar perspectives. Entrepreneurship is the creation of value. The process of setting up a business is what entrepreneurship is. Entrepreneurs are seen as innovators, sources of new ideas, goods, services, and business. Being an entrepreneur improves my goals and brings my knowledge to a higher level for me to succeed. Some entrepreneurs are passionate about inventing. They focus on identifying new opportunities or creating new products or services. These are the typical scientists or product-oriented entrepreneurs. Some entrepreneurs are passionate about founding. I became an entrepreneur because I see it as a mandatory journey to take. With the experience in the achievements in education from taking an entrepreneurship class makes me realize that working for others is no longer a life suited for me. I did this on my own with nobody's help because I believe in myself. Life as an entrepreneur, especially at the age sixteen, was really difficult at the time. There are highs and lows. There are times when I would question myself why am I taking this route, could this be good or bad, and would it ever become what I want it to be. That’s where my passion comes into place. You can always tune into your passion to help you with your branding, copywriting, and everything else that represents you and your business. Being an entrepreneur is driven by the need to succeed and control my own destiny. It makes me feel independent and successful. Especially with the skills and talents I have and also the information I have gained from taking that class. I know how to start my business and manage my business and also invest in my business. The importance of entrepreneurship has the ability to improve standards of living and create wealth. Knowing that importance builds me up. To be successful in sustainable business practice l often requires entrepreneurship and innovation. Entrepreneurship and innovation are relevant in for-profit and nonprofit ventures. Being an entrepreneur requires taking on certain responsibilities and comes with a significant challenge and potential awards. Succeeding as an entrepreneur requires creativity and innovation in addressing a new opportunity or concern in a new way.
