I will promise you that if you get the ingredients for any healthy dish you make it good. Making a healthy dish...
When I leave Rebel I want to leave with experience and skills. My time at Rebel has been very enhanced in education and my environment. I learn to communicate with people around me and my co-works.

My legacy should be positive around my peers and have good relationships with my peers whom I was in at work with for 3 hours every day knowing their...

Solving this problem became an incredible learning opportunity that continues to this day. The young entrepreneurs who...
