LuisFernando's Story

My passion is business.

My passion came to be when I first received a computer. As I explored the vast world of the Internet, I stumbled upon stocks and business info. Seeing how businessmen made money was the start of my interest in money. Ever since then, I've tried my hardest to make money by buying, selling, and trading certain items for myself and my parents. Working for myself showed so much about the world.

Attending the National Teen Leadership Program will allow me to expand my vision and learn to improve my business skills. As a student who doesn't have a job, I've got to learn to make money in a way that won't lead me to negative outcomes. Business skills are what allow a person to make money and thrive in this world. This program will allow me to develop my leadership skills so that I can succeed in this life.

A Note from Mr. Kushida, LuisFernando's Teacher

"Luis makes a great candidate for the National Teen Leadership Program because he would flourish if given the opportunity to be independent working on something he is passionate about. For starters, he is interested in business and economics. Additionally, I know he would be a great fit because his values are in line with the leadership aspect of the program. I know Luis would not only bring a lot of passion and talent to this field, but a lot of great ideas as well. I have nothing but confidence that Luis would do great things in this program."

Thanks for this great opportunity.

National Teen Leadership Program really taught me to open up and seek out new adventures that will help me see the world in a more positive manner. This program really inspired me to seek out other programs and try my best to attend NTLP for a second year. I've always looked at society through a negative point of view but the mindset that I went through during the program really did change the way I feel about summer programs and activities. I am greatly appreciative for this opportunity and I took full advantage of how the program was ran.

Excited for National Teen Leadership Program

I am so glad that I have the opportunity to attend the National Teen Leadership Program. This program will allow me to open up and expand my knowledge on what it means to be a leader not only for the people but for myself. The connections that are opened up with this program are numerous. I chose this program due to it being a door for me to grow into a better leader and create a better perspective. I'm most looking forward to interacting with the other students that signed up for the program along with seeing how different people can come together and grow.
