For me, it was reading.
Anytime I had to read a book, I would read.
get trapped up in the grammar and the syntax.
And I couldn't see past certain things and get up and use the bathroom.
I realized if I use the bathroom for five minutes in every class, I'd miss 40 minutes a day.
So I became like the master at kind of finding little shortcuts through school.
And I realized that
after being at Bridges for some time, that what we were doing at Bridges was really special.
And there needed to be a virtual version of that.
There needed to be a space where students all over the world could come together.
People were reaching out to me and saying very early on, hey, we live in Nevada.
Hey, we live in Colorado.
Is there a way that you can do this?
And it became apparent that, A, so many students are in places where they're struggling.
And not having their brilliant strengths, their curiosity, their imaginations put on display and celebrated.
And B, age was holding a lot of people back.
You have a kid at 10 years old whose graduate level rationale reasoning should be in a speech and debate program developing those.
But they're being held back because their age, they're struggling in math.
There's all these other things that feel more urgent.
So I realized I need to kind of take to the Internet and build a program that's after school enrichment courses that offers courses unlike anywhere else that I could find for all different ages based on interest, passion and strength.
