"FBLA shaped the way I looked at the world. I met amazing people and the club showed me how when working collaboratively and collectively it is possible to reach our dreams and goals. FBLA gave me the tools I need to succeed not only in the corporate world but also when applying to jobs, colleges, internships, etc. FBLA not only teaches business skills but life skills as well. Such as negotiations, speech, communication, and so much more. Since joining FBLA I have been able to have more creative liberty knowing that I have a team of people who are there to support me, I believe everyone, regardless of what you plan on pursuing in life can benefit from FBLA." -Angie Tellez-Sandoval
