Gabrielle Goodwin

The 11-year-old is the President and CEO of GaBBY Bows, a hair accessory that adds a unique twist to the classic barrette. The company, which she began at the age of seven, solved the longstanding problem of the lack of a barrette that would stay in the hair of girls. Though her bows can be found in multiple Walgreens locations in South Carolina and Georgia in the U.S., her online sales have saved lots of families time and money. Gabrielle at the moment handles inventory of her company, serves as the lead saleswoman at trade shows, and helps with sales taxes. She also teaches young children in schools and shelters about entrepreneurship.
