Lisa Armstrong presented to 8th grade about working in business and owning her own company. A few of the benefits Mrs. Armstrong finds in being an entrepreneur are the ability to focus on what is important to her, setting her own schedule, seeing the fruits of her labor, and being responsible for her income. With that, she noted that also means if she doesn't work, she doesn't make money, so it is important to plan ahead. Five pieces of advice Mrs Armstrong gave the eighth grade are: 1) Be a constant learner. 2) Take risks. 3) Connect with people. 4) Lean into your strengths. 5) Stay in school and get involved.
