I arrived in Chicago 25 years ago with my mind set on a career in business. I found an incredible opportunity for building 

my talents and skills in a diverse and challenging marketplace.

 

Managing a private investment firm that specializes in start ups and acquisitions, I've mastered many general business management skills with specialized expertise in the areas of real estate development, outdoor advertising, for - profit arts organizations, and even a little tech and bio-med.  

 

I also volunteer with a number of economic development and arts groups. I am the President of the California Corridor Business Association and on the Board of Directors for the West Town Chamber. I'm a founding member of Circle of Swans leadership group and I provide  business consulting to a variety of interests. In my spare time, I'm an artist creating under the brand Porcha Bella Clown. 

 

I'm passionate about everything I do and am committed to achieving meaningful results. I'm a builder.
