Bio
No ivy league MBA here. Just boots on the ground (if you'll excuse the pun) experience as an entrepreneur and investor in startups. I truly believe the soul of the US Economy is in the growth of small businesses and I'm passionate about finding them, investing in them, and nurturing them to growth.
