I enjoy being part of the SBDC team because:
"Having worked with small business owners for most of my career in banking, I found the business advisers at the SBDC to be invaluable partners in helping my clients become more successful in managing their businesses, or even, making their dream of becoming an entrepreneur a reality. Through the SBDC I can continue following my passion for helping small business owners in whatever way possible."
My favorite activity living in the Rogue Valley is:
“Exploring all the nooks and crannies of this beautiful valley we are so fortunate to call home.”
