| Brief Bio: |
Youth can be fearless and creative innovators. Dominic ran a
“slug be-gone business” in kindergarten and first grade. He
has run lemonade, snow cone, and produce stands. His magic
shows have been requested for neighborhood parties. His
reliability makes him sought out by neighbors to pick up mail
and packages, water plants and care for pets including several
cats, guinea pigs, fish, and chickens.
|
| Developments: |
Dominic would like to sell his art and wants to sell balloon
animals at his magic shows. He dreams of selling his dragon,
airplane, and spaceship brick build ideas to Lego.
Dominic selects and repackages seasonal local organic
produce. He connects with his customers to take orders in
advance and arranges delivery, sometimes assembling a
stationary or mobile stand.
He has built flutes from bamboo in his backyard and recently
constructed a trombone from PVC pipe, tape and a discarded
lampshade. |
