I am passionate about small business and I'm thrilled to share my years of knowledge, experience and insight with other small business owners in this course, Small Business from Scratch.

I have learned that it's always best to do as much as you can yourself. I believe this is a huge part of any small business success to minimize outsourcing, cost and to stay true to your vision.

My story is a long journey of creating businesses when and where I see opportunity, and then working hard to make them successful. I have started twenty small businesses in different industries from tutoring to restaurants to ranching - and now full circle to sharing my love of small business in teaching this course.

As you can guess, this story is a long one! I do my best to tell my story here in this post, but if you'd like to listen to the audio instead, here is my story in a podcast interview with Rural Revival.
