What do you do now and what are you planning for the future? I've worked with a lot of technology and industrial companies over the years, helping them navigate the maze of economic incentives and obtain the greatest benefits for their business. I always want to ensure businesses take advantage of as many economic incentives as possible. As for the future, I really enjoy working with manufacturing companies, specifically, because I find there is so much opportunity for them to benefit from economic incentives. I hope to guide them in this process!
