Award-Winning Author
I write about the real world of business; the one where everyone isn’t a tech billionaire, and most of us work hard to run good companies. Everything I author is from an owner’s point of view, and is intended for another owner’s benefit. I consider it a a privilege to work with entrepreneurs and I love to hear about their challenges and triumphs. Who knows? Share your story and you, too might be in a book someday.
