How I Can Help You

I have 40+ years of broad business experience with tech start-ups, community services, education and training as well as in customer support and product development. I have been a contributor to early internet enterprises and employed by regional governments, academic institutions and Fortune 500 companies. I recently joined SCORE as a mentor to assist small businesses and local entrepreneurs through all stages of their development. Being part of a network of 10,000+ SCORE volunteer mentors working with SCORE clients is a great opportunity to share my experience and expertise.
