How many years have you been in your current field? 18 years

What are you planning to do differently in 2020 to have a positive impact on your career? In a brand new role at Advanced CT, I am excited to broaden my network and meaningfully engage with our partners -- individuals and organizations that help lead to business retention and recruitment in the state. Our partners include: Municipalities and regions, legislators, commercial real estate/construction firms, colleges & universities, transit, state agencies, workforce organizations, entrepreneur ecosystem members and others. The purpose of establishing and strengthening these relationships is that all partners will have a specific role in helping to achieve economic development growth for the state of Connecticut.
