The Best, The Underground

This is the last project for my Entrepreneurship course and also the last Action Project of my senior year. The purpose of this project was to make a business pitch that you can eventually pitch to investors. I learned a lot about how to do an effective pitch and what will get people in the door. I'm also excited about using these entrepreneurship skills to my future skate/graffiti/hip-hop business.

My Skateboarding Passion

This is the Final Action project for my Endurance course and also my last action project as a student at GCE Lab school. The purpose of this project was to create a "survival manual" that maps out my personal journey and how I will pursue it and what will help, and hurt me along the way. in this project we had the option to do a custom content portion on the rubric, for my custom content I decided to add a video of me skateboarding because it relates to my mission. I learned a lot about myself in this course and a lot about what I am capable of if I put my mind to it. I am very proud of this project I'm general because it is my last humanities project I will ever do at GCE and I feel like I put a lot of heart into it. Thank you and please enjoy reading my survival manual.

25 amazing hours

For my 25 service hours I participated in a construction project. For previous hours I worked with my dad taking apart the front of a house and reconstructing it. For these 25 hours I continued to work at the same place but this time we moved to the roof, We had to redo the chimney because it was in very bad shape. We also had to move a deck and lay down new roofing and new brick on the edges. Lastly we had to reconstruct the deck and put it back in place. The last time I worked at this construction site it was only me and my dad but this time we had one of my dads friends. The entire project from start to finish was about 27 hours but I only needed 25 service hours. After the whole project I walked away with a little more knowledge about construction such as roofing. Another thing I learned was that construction is very dangerous because during the job my dads friend burned his hand. He burnt his hand with the roofing material because in order for the roofing to stick to the roof you have to torch it until it melts to the ground. I also learned that you always have to be ready for the unexpected because after the burn happened he quickly ran over to a bucket of water that they had set aside for that exact reason. In the end, it was a very fun experience and I would really like to do it again in the future.

The Underground

This is the second Action Project for my Entrepreneurship course. The purpose of this project was to choose an already existing company or make a company of your own and create a business plan that has all the elements of a professional business plan. I learned a lot about how to write a business plan and everything that goes into a great business plan. I am very proud of my business plan because I got to take my dream business and get one step closer to my dream. After doing my business plan for this project I am very confident that I want to start my business. Please see my business plan below.

Skate and succeed

This was the second Action Project for my Endurance course. The purpose of this project was to dedicate at least 12 hours to something new, a fear or just something you want to try and for every hour you must document what you did and how it helps you move towards your ultimate goal. I learned a lot about myself in this project. Before this project I thought that I was brave and wasn't scared of anything, especially when it came to skating, but this project proved me wrong. I am very proud of my video and I hope that i can take what I learned from this project and use it to continue to improve at skateboarding.





During the process of this 12 hour challenge it was very difficult for me to face some of my biggest fears within a sport I thought I was very comfortable with. When I first started the challenge I thought that I would not improve very much because I learn slow when it comes to skateboarding. During the first few hours I was surprised to see that I had already learned a decent amount of new things. Towards the end of this mission I had learned 6 new trick, 4 new grinds, how to skate a rail and also how to skate a ramp. Now that the 12 hours is done I am going to keep pursuing my mission of getting better at skateboarding and maybe one day I will even be a professional, but for now I'm going to take it one step at a time.
