Lily Arispe: 9-Year-Old Founder of Lilypad Prints - How Lily Became a 3D-Printed Earrings Designer, Junior Girl Scout and Business Owner!

Welcome to Season 2/Episode 4 of Smart As A Cookie: The Podcast, presented by USA Girl Scouts Overseas in partnership with Pop Singer/Songwriter Kristina Lachaga! Meet Lily Arispe: Founder of Lilypad Prints, Junior Girl Scout and total STEMinist! At 8 years old, Lily used her Dad's 3D printer to create a busy business of her very own and in her first 3 months of business she sold over 1000 pairs of 3D printed earring (now that's a total goal-getter!).

Lily has over 100+ 3D-printed earring designs, including mermaid tail, hearts, moons, and origami cranes and we love her commitment to excellence with each pair of earrings she makes.

Find out Lily's advice for young girls starting businesses, turning your passion for fashion into a (super creative & innovative!) business, giving back to the community, her (brand new!) Girl Scout journey, and more!

Lily has such an amazing personality and energy and it was so much fun talking with her over Zoom for our interview!

Get to know our fab entrepreneur, Lily!

- Lily sells her earrings in local shops in North Carolina and in her online store. For every pair of earrings sold in these shops, she donates a dollar to a local women's shelter! (Love this!!)

- Lily is a brand-new Girl Scouts (catch her wearing her Junior vest to her Troop meetings!)

- Lily loves being homeschooled and learning new things every day!
