I grew up in Indiana in a small business family, where I learned firsthand the demands of entrepreneurship and the dedication a small business requires. I graduated from the University of Michigan - Ann Arbor with a degree in Industrial Engineering on an Air Force ROTC scholarship and served as an aircraft maintenance officer in the United States Air Force. Later, I worked in an operations role at GE and in private equity in Boston. Now, I’m looking to return to my roots by partnering with small business owners who care deeply about preserving their businesses and the future of their employees before enjoying a well-earned retirement.
