Describe your whole college experience and how it has enabled you to progress.
I've made good friends that will stay with me throughout my life time. That's the support you need in life, good friends. I miss my tutors, they made me want to get out of bed every morning for college.
I'm a finalist for Bexley Business Excellence Awards 2017, as "Young Entreprenaur" and "Best Business under 2 years old". I have given speeches for young entreprenaurs as a guest speaker, and have other speeches planned throughout the year. People tell me I'm inspirational for someone so young.
One of my proudest moments was producing a video for free for a local charity, to help them raise funds for a new bus (which they are still trying to raise). Video link is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vT1NXnU-xik
