I would like to express my gratitude to Belleville CEO for creating opportunities that allow students to engage with businesses across our community. The exposure and mentorship we receive through this program give us the chance to apply our insights into developing real business projects. I have gained valuable knowledge not only in the business aspect, but also knowledge I have found applicable in all facets of life. One of the most meaningful experiences I've had so far was hearing from our guest speaker, Renea Eichholz. Her story of persistence through seemingly impossible personal and professional challenges made me more motivated and hopeful about my own future. In the beginning, she let people’s judgement dictate her own but the one time she decided to stop, she founded Precision Practice Management. It showed me how people’s limited imagination shouldn’t limit your reality and I thought this theme was an important mindset to adopt for anything I do in the future. - Joyce Dong, Session One
