My name is Eason Lassiter. I am a 6th grade student at the Fernwood Middle School. I enjoy running Track & Field and playing basketball. When I grow up I want to be an entrepreneur. I currently have a bracelet business called "Back in Beads boys" with my younger brother where I make and sell bracelets to doctor's offices to give out to patients. My favorite subject in school is Math. I also enjoy drawing, but my passion is running. I hope to go to the Olympics when I'm older. Joining the Youth Leadership Institute has helped me learn and become a leader in my community.
