Hi everyone! I'm Ronith Ganjigunta and I'm a high school senior from BASIS Independent Silicon Valley in the San Francisco Bay Area. I've been interested in business and entrepreneurship since I was a child and this past summer I created Bingo, a startup that helps elderly citizens shop online amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. Working on Bingo has given me valuable knowledge into the ups and downs of running a business and I'm excited to share my insights with you in this course. I'm also an officer at DECA, where I compete primarily in the entrepreneurship cluster. I hope this course will help you learn more about entrepreneurship and how you can create your own business.
