I am an entrepreneur and have concepted and operated small businesses. I now run a Marketing Investment company out of Boston where I invest in and work with entrepreneurs on growing their businesses. My expertise is focused in marketing and branding-I understand well that these areas tend to go untended during any growth phase. But without focus to them its very difficult to sucessfully grow. I have interest in not just being an investor but also in being part of the management team in a hands on/advisory capacity. Do note: I am easy to get along with, dont worry (!), and understand well the many challenges of small business. In the past my focus has been on retail concepts but I also have great interest in other industries where marketing and branding play a central role in generating sales volumes. I am married, live in Boston, and have two young boys ages 1.5 and 3 who keep me busy. Thank you for your time. I look forward to learning about your business.
