Last week I attended the Rose Cafe with Peter on entrepreneurship, and it was a super cool experience. This was my first Rose Scholars event, so I had no idea what to image. It was an intimate setting in an apartment in Rose Main with refreshments and soft sitting. It was a comfortably relaxing atmosphere, which was such a nice change from the hustle and bustle of Cornell. It was really cool to learn about Peter’s work with his businesses and the E-Hubs. Though I do not particularly have any interest in creating my own business yet, it was really cool to think about the options and hear from someone as motivated as Peter.

I have a special place in my heart for entrepreneurship because my mother has created her own business selling her own painted art pieces. I have grown up around her business, but now as I am old enough to understand her hard work, I really am proud of my mom and where she has gotten herself. Hearing about Peter made me reflect on all of my mother’s hard work and really appreciate it. Maybe I will consider this route after further research!
