I appreciate the time, information and resources Ron shared with me on Wednesday. Ron has a lot of experience that I can learn from. I always walk away from the SBDC consultations so much better than when I first walked in because of the genuine help and guidance I always receive.

Ron, Shaula, John, Christina and Heather have all been just great! Thank you, everyone!

I also appreciate the way Shaula schedules appointments for me. She’s always so happy to help and I love spending time with her when I get the chance after my consultations. Shaula’s the best!

She explained what important things I should think about concerning opening a trust for my family. She answered all of my legal questions which helped me to continue moving in the right direction as I build my LLC. – I genuinely appreciate all of Christina’s guidance, time and attention.
