About Me
Hello! My name is J’Lea York and I’m a senior at Arcola High School. I am involved in track and field and am a member of the National Honor Society. After high school, I plan on attending college and majoring in psychology in hopes of becoming a mental health therapist. I joined the CEO program because I want to learn more about businesses, entrepreneurship and to break out of my comfort zone.

About My Business
Make every meal time special for your furry friend! Pawsh Pets by J’Lea is an at home business that allows you to gift your pet a non-slip, stainless steel, personalized pet bowl to enrich the bond between you and your family pet. To make your ordering experience as easy as possible, I will be offering multiple size, color, and font options, as well as freedom with the text on the pet bowl. You already feed your pets like family, so why not feed them in style with a bowl of their own?
