On Mentoring:

“Being a mentor at TechTown allows me the opportunity to help others and give something back to the community. Southeast Michigan needs everyone’s help to overcome the economic downturn and TechTown mentoring allows me a chance to do my part. It’s a great feeling to be able to help a startup business using the experience and knowledge I have gained from 20 plus years in business.”
