Meet Shirley Perez

The mind behind Youthpreneurs

I embarked on my first entrepreneurial journey in my twenties, driven by a deep curiosity and passion for creating solutions. My journey took a significant turn when I became a mother. Observing the unique needs of other mothers, I launched an educational platform aimed at supporting and empowering them. That platform quickly expanded into a magazine, a Summer Camp Fair for families, and even a podcast where people could share their personal lessons and experiences.

I’ve always considered myself a serial entrepreneur—constantly identifying opportunities to meet needs and connect people. I’ve hosted workshops on healthy self-esteem and the creation of your Vision Board for young girls across the Dominican Republic and in Savannah, and took a personal leap into homeschooling with my youngest son. Watching him create his own business and encouraging him to participate in business fairs inspired me even more. It was in those moments I realized how important it is for young people to develop an entrepreneurial mindset early on.

This is what led me to create Youthpreneurs. This course is designed to mentor and empower young entrepreneurs, guiding them through the process of taking their ideas, turning them into reality, and bringing them to the marketplace. It’s not just about starting businesses—it’s about fostering creativity, resilience, and a growth mindset that will serve them for a lifetime.
