Entrepreneur Name: Jessica Griffin, (Age: 18)

Business Name: One Piece Missing (Jessie GH Designs), Cork, Ireland

Being diagnosed with Asperger’s as a child, Jessica wanted to create a comic book series to make Autism easier to understand. Growing up there was no one in books or on television that reflected Jessica’s life and so One Piece Missing was born.
