Piper Carlston
About Me
I am someone who likes to take initiative and make things happen. My name is Piper Carlston, and I am a junior at Skyline High School. What makes me excited about entrepreneurship is the opportunity to build something that is truly my own. I am motivated by independence, leadership, and the challenge of turning ideas into something real. Something that creates value and revenue in the real world. I have always been self-driven. No one has ever had to push me to earn strong grades or step into leadership roles; I naturally hold myself to high standards and push myself to grow. Outside of school, I value my family and faith and enjoy spending time outdoors, especially around horses and in the mountains. I am excited to be part of Granite CEO because it will push me to think bigger, take real risks, and learn directly from business leaders. I want to challenge myself, expand my mindset, and turn my ambition into action.
