What Is Crochetta?
One of my various extracurricular activities/ work experiences is my business, Crochetta. My business has been a form of work for me since March 2014.

This diminutive source of income was accommodative in maintaining myself and my family while my father was absent. During this period, I matured and grew more dependent on my business and less reliant on my mother for providing my needs.

    Brigham Young University Scholarship Essay

    In my years of Junior High I discovered the thrill of business. My father had a small ATV with a snowplow and I asked him if I could use it to clear the neighbors' driveway. His response was "show me a business plan, and we'll talk." I had no idea how to write a business plan! When I asked my dad how I was to do it, his response was classic "You'll figure it out." This response has become a second guiding motto in my life. I did figure it out, the business plan was approved, and the business grew. At its peak, it had 3 vehicles in the fleet and expanded its service to cover anything from custom Christmas lights to yard renovations, all at the age…

    Business Major Personal Statement

    In 5th grade, I started my own little business. I would go to school and sell Mardi Gras beads I got from my family. I sold the beads for twenty-five cents to my peers and teachers and fifty cents to strangers. I only sold for a week, but that week I would go home with between five to seven dollars each day. I did not have a reason for wanting to sell the beads, in particular, I just wanted to make money and save all the money I earned. That same "want" has driven me throughout my life. In middle school, my dad and uncle started a business running a food truck. Because I was too young and was in school, I only worked with them during the summer. There I learned how to handle money, provide great customer service, and how to market and advertise.…
