I believe that entrepreneurship is the way to make the world a better place for people. Creating access to capital and jobs drives our economy. Enabling people who foster innovation and change is critical to our success as a society.
I love speaking on entrepreneurship and why/how governments need to work with startups.
I am an Air Force Captain and have served as an Airfield Operations Officer in the US and in Afghanistan. I have facilitated Startup Weekends all around the US. Always happy to do another one! Presidents Leadership Class Alumni :)
