As a seasoned program manager with over a decade of experience, I have led countless corporate volunteers, students & educators through Junior Achievement's entrepreneurial, financial literacy, and career readiness programs. Over the last 6 years, I have focused on relaunching & expanding Delaware's JA Company Program experience - envision, middle & high school youth launching real enterprises, aiming to generate a profit while honing valuable skills and gaining hands-on experience. Plus, they get the opportunity of being coached and mentored by local, industry professionals & Subject Matter Experts (SME). We also infuse business tools such as Square Point of Sale in order to provide the framework for students to get real-life business experience, including managing online websites & operating full-scale e-commerce businesses, usually within small teams of 5-15 students.After running a couple business cycles, these student-led companies liquidate & film a 60-second commercial, create an annual report and compete against other student companies at local & national competitions - earning prizes, scholarships & other awards while building out fantastic networks for their future! ..............................As the CEO of Venderly, I am dedicated to revolutionizing the education industry by empowering educators and schools to launch or expand their own successful SBE initiatives.
