I help early stage companies acquire capital, e-commerce, acquire talent, site location, marketing strategies, conduct industry and competitive analysis, and write executive summaries/business plans. I'm very experienced advising new businesses on formation of corporations and business structures, taking into consideration: taxes, divorces in ownership, and scale. The one thing I do better than anyone else is to analyze talent, identifying strengths and weaknesses in your companies team, organizational structure and then I help you fill in the gaps. Writing executive summaries, business plans, and grants. Authored a $100k Chase Mission Main Street Grant for a social enterprise in Cleveland, Ohio. Authored a business plan that was fully funded by Huntington Bank for an optometrist in Delaware, Ohio. Co-Authored a grant that was fully funded by the AARP Foundation for a startup in Baltimore, Maryland. Authored a business plan for a racetrack that was fully funded in Columbus, Ohio. Authored a business plan for a home healthcare company that was fully funded in Warren, Ohio. Family business. I have worked in and with family businesses for almost twenty years. My expertise is navigating relationships, inequalities, and confronting business decisions that have always been done that way but need to evolve.

My team makes our clients lives better. Everyday we provide a range of important services to individuals with a range of diagnosis. They are people whose challenges are well documented. At The Nicholson Center, we have always worked hard to provide services to the clients who are challenging and often unwanted because of their behavioral needs.After Governor Kasich created the Employment First initiative, I started working to create employment opportunities in the community. Working with the Beaver Creek Candle company and Tommy's Jerky Outlet, we launched seven retail stores in Warren, Howland, Salem, Boardman, Calcutta, Columbus and Lancaster, Ohio. The clients who work in these stores earn paychecks that change their lives.

This initiative has lost focus at the Chamber which I think is sad. The conversations that we had were influential on the lives of those who attended. I really felt that we had an opportunity to help influence entrepreneurs across the country to get involved.

I founded this company with my mother in 1999 and we began providing residential support services to individuals with mental retardation and developmental disabilities in February of 2000. My mother and I worked together from Feb 2000 until March 2002. I ran the company independently from March 2002 to May of 2005 until such time that I started college at Ohio State.
