After leaving SYSPRO I made up my mind that my next career goal was to own and manage my own business. After 474 days of networking for opportunities, analyzing & valuing a variety of independent businesses - 13 times over - negotiating and finally closing on a sweet acquisition I'm pleased to have crossed the finish line!It's been an incredible journey full of rewarding experiences and learning all along the way. If you want something to happen - make it happen.
