What business challenges keep you up at night?
Finding, retaining, and engaging good employees is a challenge business is facing today as well as the increased threat of security breaches. Economic volatility and uncertainty are concerning as it has an impact on how our industry operates and performs.
When you’re not working, where in the Toledo Region do you like to spend your time?
Going to the Mud Hens, Walleyes or University of Toledo sporting events, taking advantage of our great Metro Parks, and coaching multiple youth sports is how I spend most of my time.
Do you have any advice for new business owners?
Time efficiency is key, and it’s imperative to find a balance as a new business owner. Be prepared to work harder than you ever have, be prepared for periods of 60-plus-hour weeks, but also realize those hours are not sustainable. Focus on being the best at what you do and building a strong team that will help you find that balance.
What advice do you have to give to emerging talent in your field?
Some of the best advice I received when starting my career that still holds true today, is do not be afraid to make a mistake. That fear can paralyze you from action. Have a solid process for your decisions and if wrong, learn and grow from that mistake. Having a mentor is a great asset and can help your growth and development.
