I have experience in all aspects of starting operating and exiting a successful small business.

I founded a business in 1989 where we serviced medical electronics equipment. We began with an initial investment of $1,000 and grew the business to over 5 million dollars annually. We have done this without debt.

I developed and implemented an exit strategy that allowed me to retire in 2011.

Prior to starting the business I was COO of a company that sold capital equipment to hospitals and doctors offices.
