My Entrepreneurship Story

Entrepreneurship Story

My entrepreneurship story beings with my father’s and I’s company. As immigrants we came to this country for the American dream, which we have accomplished. Throughout my academic career, I regrettably had no choice but to dutifully incorporate myself into the family business full-time. My father herniated three disks and was bedridden for several months and has since been unable to perform the heavy manual labor involved in our a/c service business. The business is the only source of income for my family and required my attention in order to stay afloat. Therefore, I divided every instant of time I could muster between a schedule of classes, labs, homework and a full-time Job without a wage. Even so, I still continued my involvement within the business, managing phone calls, attending to all correspondence, and driving down for big jobs. In 2017, I began examinations to become a certified Florida Air Conditioning Contractor which would allow for the necessary expansion of the business. Once I was able to pass the necessary licensing exams, I became the qualifying agent and the co-owner. Since I have been managing certain aspects of the company. Also, I have set myself on a journey to expand my knowledge on the business world. Thus, my reason for taking ENT3003; this course can provide me with the proper skills to expand to new heights.
