The Final Blog

Week of 5/2 - 5/9

It's crazy to think that I am at the end of my ISM journey already. It felt like just yesterday I was writing my first ever ISM blog over my startup journey. This year has continued to improve that time really does fly and we must keep moving instead of giving in. This road presented me with lots of knowledge and brought me to many opportunities however, I hit a few road bumps on the way but, I have no regrets in doing so.

A learning experience like ISM is an experience that I believe comes once in a lifetime. I am more than proud of myself that I did not take this opportunity for granted and put my best foot forward in everything that I did for the class. The effort I put into the class returned great results such as a successful mentorship that will continue to thrive beyond ISM and many new entrepreneurial opportunities. In my belief, ISM can completely change your life if you are willing to put in the effort required to meet the rigor of the class. I cannot begin to explain how much it has helped me with my field of study and my professionalism.

Although I will continue to carry on with my research, mentorship, and original work, I am truly honored to say that I have finished ISM with success and with that, my high school career. I will miss being in ISM class hearing the motivational talks Mr. Pirtle gave to us and also miss my classmates who have helped me along this long road. To anyone wanting to take a course like ISM, I highly advise that you don't let the opportunity pass no matter what kind of student you are because opportunities like these never come back.
