I and the rest of the JumpStart team look forward to sharing our individual ideas, thoughts, insights and I am sure, on occasion, opinions and challenges that we see or think about in our day-to-day work at JumpStart. We look forward to also engaging with participants of our blog as they share their thoughts and insights that are relevant to the various topics we will discuss.
Several JumpStart team members will be regular contributors to this blog including myself; Becca Braun, our Chief Operating Officer; Lynn-Ann Gries, our Chief Investment Officer; Darrin Redus our Chief Economic Inclusion Officer; and eventually, our new Chief Marketing Officer who will be joining the organization shortly. We will also have guest participants including other JumpStart team leaders, board members, and various thought leaders from the entrepreneurial or investment community.
We hope you find our collective thoughts shared here worth your time and interchange of your thoughts, ideas and opinions. I look forward to starting this conversation!
