Johnathan Kelly is the maker of squish mellows, Johnathan had gotten his inspiration while being out, and about like any entrepreneur, and found soft stuffed animals in Japan. He enjoyed how cute they were and decided he eventually wanted to make and create one of his own. Squish Mellows was then launched in 2017 and has been selling ever since. I am a huge fan of squish mellows and have obtained around twenty of them in the past year. This brand has created over 3,000 different styles and continues to sell each year. They are large in demand for children and adults! His innovative design has truly changed and shaped the way most people view stuffed animals.

Vera Wang is a popular, and well-known fashion designer, who is most famous for her wedding dresses. She started as a designer and evolved from there. After she had graduated from college she worked as an editor for Vogue magazine for 15 years.

As mentioned above Vera Wang’s entrepreneurial ideas came when she wasn’t able to find a wedding dress for herself that she loved. She had opened her first bridal boutique. Vera Wang didn’t just design dresses, she had built a whole brand that included everything from perfumes to accessories, etc. What makes her journey so inspiring to me, is that she took many risk, and didn’t just settle for one job that she didn’t feel passionate about. She took a large risk but changing her career which ultimately expanded her brand into many different areas. Today Vera Wang is a large designer brand that is worn by fashion designers, celebrities, brides, and etc. She shows me and others that you do not have to settle for one thing and entrepreneurship is a ton of networks, and if done creatively, and effectively it can become a big.

Kate Spade is one of the entrepreneurs that I aspire to be like. Kate Spade was born on December 14th, 1962, she was an inspirational fashion designer who crafted many beautiful purses, and items. She had grown up in Kansas City and had a craft and an art for design. Kate had worked at Mademoiselle in the accessories section. She soon quit her job to make a rank as being senior fashion designer (which is a pretty big deal if you ask me). She had a show at the Jarvis Center where she had put her bags on display, before anyone knew it, her brand began to blow up, and she became a top fashion designer in New York. Though she has sadly passed away, her legacy still lives on, and her bags are still popular to this day. Her charm and design made her a legend in the fashion industry and has changed the way we view handbags and other materials. I have 3 of her bags, and they are all reliable, and fashionable, which I believe she was striving for. I am inspired and amazed by her work!

Howard Schultz is the man we know today as the Ceo of Starbucks. Everyone, well mostly everyone loves Starbucks! Howard was born in Brooklyn New York, in 1953, he grew up in a working-class family, but he faced a ton of different financial struggles as a child growing up which like any entrepreneur, inspired him to become stronger. He had obtained a scholarship for football at the University of Michigan, and graduated with a degree in communications, leading him to become a sales rep at Xerox.

Howard’s life changed juristically when he joined Starbucks in 1982 which back then was a small coffee shop that was in Seattle. Schultz was so enticed by the company and the coffee they had created that he just had to be a part of it. He had a vision to turn the small Starbucks that he had seen into a large chain. He had gone to Italy, and after being inspired, and enticed by the cafe culture, he began to acquire Starbucks, and further his design, and innovative draw for a successful company. By traveling he was able to get the inspiration that he wanted, and further built upon his dream of success

A quote from Schultz: “People want to be part of something larger than themselves. They want to be part of something they’re really proud of, that they’ll fight for, sacrifice for, that they trust.” ~ Howard Schultz

Elon Musk is a super cool entrepreneur who is known for his innovative thinking and his RICH ideas. Elon was born on June 28, 1971, in Pretoria South Africa. Growing up Musk had a passion for technology and science. At the age of only 12 years old, Elon created a video game called Blastar (relates to his Rocketship). After making it he eventually sold it for about 500 dollars, this shows his early signs of him and his Entrepreneurial mind. Growing up like many children he was bullied, and one day a group of boys pushed him down the stairs landing him in the hospital. Musk did not quit working on his dream. Soon he developed multibillion-dollar establishments such as Tesla, and Space X. His adversaries did not stop him from becoming the successful man he is today. Though he had gone through a lot growing up he still had fights left in him to become successful, he inspires me personally because knowing that he had been bullied like many other kids shows that it doesn’t define you and one day you will do great things! Musk moved to the United States to attend the University of Pennsylvania, (WHERE I LIVE), and he had created a product called Zip 2 which not to mention is also a multibillion-dollar establishment!
