"Early in my business career I
started three different entrepreneurial ventures—one of which I grew
to $22M annual sales and employed over 100 people. About twenty
years ago I decided to accept the position of senior business
advisor with the Massachusetts Small Business Development Center. I
have now counseled almost 4,000 clients, helped start hundreds of
businesses, raised millions in finance, and helped clients grow their
businesses successfully. I get to share my education and experience
with so many people. This has been, and continues to be, the most
personally and professionally rewarding journey of my life!"
"The job brings something new every day, and it is incredibly
fulfilling being able to help so many innovative businesses. We also
have a great team of talented individuals at our Center, and I'm
proud to call them my colleagues."
"At the MSBDC, every day is different—we see such a broad range of entrepreneurs and businesses and no two days are alike. It keeps things interesting, for sure! I love helping people navigate the path towards successful business ownership. It's fun to work with such a diverse set of colleagues and partners too. We call on each other constantly for advice and support and it is nice to be part of a great team."
