My Entrepreneurship Story


     I have always somewhat considered myself an entrepreneur.  From a very young age, I have always seen problems or limitations with certain practices and have created many theoretical business ideas that could provide solutions to these limitations/problems. I have two recent entrepreneurship stories that I experienced.
     Two years ago, my cousin and I entered a collegiate business plan competition where you had to develop a winning business idea, and really think through all of the different aspects of a business such as financials, competitive strategy, etc. We came up with a business called “Juntos” that was essentially a different type of Ebay. We made it all the way to finals with it before we were eliminated. It was a great experience and it put me in touch with some other great entrepreneurs.
     Additionally, this past summer, two of my friends and I started a business called RecoveryWithCare LLC. It is a post-surgical recovery business that is still being worked on today. The website is www.recoverywithcare.com. Our logo is posted underneath.
     I am taking ENT3003 because I have always been extremely interested in entrepreneurship and I believe that this course will give me a firm foundation in the subject. 

Introduction

Hey Guys,

     My name is Sawyer Lambert and I am a junior here at UF. I am from Sarasota, Florida which is about two hours south of here. I am a business administration student and plan to work in finance (banking/investments) when I graduate. I have a brother and sister. Brother also graduated from UF and is applying for medical schools currently. My sister attends the St. Andrews University in Scotland. I have traveled quite a bit of places over my 21 years. This past summer I backpacked all over Europe for about a month. One of my favorite places that I stayed at was in Stockholm, Sweden. Great city with a lot of fun stuff to do. Here is a picture:
