Blake Ross was born in 1985 and from the early age of ten he loved to design and create websites and even one or two of his own video games just for the fun of it. While in high school Blake began working for Mozilla. Blake then went on to study at Stanford University to learn Net Scape. While learning on it he realized how poorly it worked along with Internet Explorer, so he decided with his co-worker, Dave Hyatt and the backing of Mozilla he created Mozilla Firefox. Blake is a great example of an entrepreneur because he saw how bad all the other options for web browsing was, even his parents had explained their frustration over how bad it was to him. He saw a problem that he could fix. He took his chance and now owns one of the most well known and most used web browsers in the world. He had a passion for web design that he used to fix other people’s pain and he adapted it to make it work better than the competition. He shows the true definition of a true millennial entrepreneur.
This inspires me to go out and create, to look for issues that people are having and find way to fix them and make them better than they are now. to go out and find trouble in whatever form that takes, to be able to innovate no matter the age and make the world just a little more innovative,
It is amazing that at such a young age he was able to do something this big. He is a good example of what an entrepreneur is. He solves others peoples problems and he enjoys doing it. It is really cool to see what people can do when given the opportunity to express their gifts.
This such a great story about Blake Ross. He is a great example of what it means to be a young entripenure. His resume is long and very credible. I use Firefox everyday and it is such a great browser that has been developed very well. Great story Amazing Article.
I love that he found a problem and capitalized on it. He was able to create something that everyone now uses. He saw the pain other people was going through and took advantage of the opportunity and ran with it.
