How to work with me
What I can offer
I'm interested in connecting with entrepreneurs who are getting started and need help organizing their plans.
My expectations for a successful mentoring relationship
I want to see my mentees succeed in meeting their defined objectives.
How entrepreneurs can prepare before we start
The entrepreneur should have a short description of their business and have defined their intention for the mentoring interaction. Is there a specific problem they are trying to address? What is the timeline for success?
