At first glance, Alina Morse looks much like any other girl her age. However, by the time she was 13 years old, the teenager was the CEO of a multi-million-dollar company. And her success came from the invention of a super-sweet treat that could save kids’ teeth, rather than destroying them.
In recent years, the term “teenpreneurs” has gained traction in popular culture. The word is simply a combination of the words “teen” and “entrepreneur,” and refers to adolescents who have set up their own business ventures.
