Back to school — but this time on the other side of the classroom! 🎓
Over the past two days, I had the opportunity to visit Lisbon High School and speak with four classes about my journey, becoming a business owner, working in the insurance industry, and some of the lessons I’ve learned along the way.
We also talked about something I think is incredibly important for students at this stage of life: what comes after high school.
There isn’t one “right” path. College can be a great option, but so can entering the workforce, learning a trade, starting a career, or simply taking some time to figure out what you actually want to do. Your plans may change along the way — mine certainly did — and that’s part of the process.
I really enjoyed answering their questions and sharing some of my experiences, successes, mistakes, and things I wish I had known when I was their age.
A big thank you to Lisbon High School and the teacher who invited me into his classroom for the opportunity. It was great getting to spend some time with the students and hopefully give them a few things to think about as they plan for what comes next.
One of the best parts of owning a local business is having opportunities like this to be involved in the community we serve. ❤️
