About
Hello! I'm Ada Knechtel the mastermind behind AK Creates. I am a 10th grader at Shawnee Mission West and I am always finding a way to be creative. When I was just 11, during the pandemic, I was on a mission to start a business. I thought it would be so fun selling my art (and as a bonus I would be able to spread some positivity and happiness in the world during that tough time).
Part 1:
I noticed at an early age that there is a lot of negativity in our everyday lives. When I founded AK Creates, it was during quarantine, when people needed easy ways to uplift each other and stay in touch.
Part 2:
Bright and colorful stationery that promotes positivity! This includes greeting cards that can be sent to loved ones to cheer them up, cute stickers with motivational messages, notepads encouraging productivity, and notebooks custom designed to match your style!
Part 3:
Millennials and Gen X in the United States, but open to anyone who likes cute paper goods that brighten their day.
Part 4:
Will be included with final submission.
Next Steps
Would love some input for how to improve the presentation. But, next steps for the future I am looking for new opportunities to network and expand my business. As well as find ways to sell more ranges of products to a bigger variety of people, to make more sales.

Thank you!
