In 2016, upon realizing my hometown, Commerce City, didn’t have a Chamber of Commerce, I set out to fix it. I launched the Commerce City Chamber of Commerce by signing up 100 businesses in 100 days.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n


With the Chamber firmly established, I decided to move forward on a grander scale. On June 30, 2019 I quit my day job to launch 20\/20 Growth Conferences to pursue two of my biggest passions – innovation and good effective governance.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n


All my life I’ve been obsessed with making the world a better place. But “Change Agent” wasn’t available as a major at Virginia Tech in the late ’80’s! With 20\/20 Growth Conferences, I create a platform for all of us interested in the future to participate in its design.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
