Embark on your entrepreneurial adventure with me, a mentor who excels in guiding both startups and growing businesses. With expertise in establishing solid business foundations, I adeptly navigate through business entity setup, accounting systems, and compliance with local, state, and federal requirements. My experience spans startup costs, cash flow prediction, contract management, human resources, essential business insurances, and multi-state business operations, ensuring a comprehensive approach to business setup and expansion.

My experience encompasses senior leadership roles across diverse fields such as engineering, systems integration, software development, manufacturing, education, and youth development. I was a professor at a local university for 13 years teaching economics, entrepreneurship, and finance. I’ve had my own small business providing consulting and IT infrastructure services since 2013.

I have worked in accounting since 2005 and own and manage a Certified Public Accounting firm serving clients across the United States. I work heavily with small business owners, but have also worked in private accounting for an Inc.

Business Strategy, Business Operations, Logistics

I can help you to evaluate your specific business ideas, identify strategic plans to develop those ideas, and then provide you with guidance and resources using SCORE to help you start and grow your business!

I help SCORE clients by assisting and guiding them on their entrepreneurship and small business journey. I have specific experience in small business management, government contracting (DoD), product development, and startup finance (specifically venture capital finance). I can help clients to contemplate starting a business, build a startup business plan, understand startup financial projections, self-assess the strength of their startup concept, and set SMART goals and objectives for their startup journey.

After getting to know you and your objectives, I will draw on my own relevant experiences consulting with multiple companies of various sizes, and from different industries, to help you succeed in your endeavor. I will also leverage the experiences of the many other mentors I have met through SCORE and use our discussions and my insights to bring the best of the SCORE network to help you reach your goals. Together, we can work to help you build and grow a successful business.
