"Small businesses represent 99% of all employers in the U.S. and are responsible for generating well over half of new jobs created.  With 14 years on Wall Street and my family's roots in small business, I know the challenges that face entrepreneurs and I'm eager to find solutions to help them succeed. It's obvious that helping small businesses thrive is a critical component of growing our economy, both locally and nationally.

Building upon a successful program in 2007, I am eager to bring new services directly to small businesses in our community.  To that end, I am hosting a series of seminars in 2008 that will bring contracting experts and experienced entrepreneurs to local venues to educate small businesses that are eager to sell their product or services to federal, state, or local government agencies."
