Entrepreneurship helps students learn skills such as problem solving and time management as they balance work and school. Senior Eve Duarte and junior Cristian Lazo are two students who have taken to this challenge and opened aesthetic based businesses to showcase their creativity and passion for their crafts.
Junior Cristian Lazo's journey as a handyman began when he moved into a neighborhood and saw an opportunity to help out the elderly. Lazo's mother encouraged him to seek work outside and his father taught him skills that allowed him to offer his services around his neighborhood such as car washing, painting, and general work like helping out his neighbors either picking up leaves or their storage. “I started off by cleaning up their leaves and household handy work,” said Lazo.
