This video is part of a City Alive series featuring our city’s entrepreneurs and business owners. Through this series we seek to advance a clearer understanding of the systems and resources they engage with every day. That knowledge of what is working and what is not can inform approaches to improve systems so they work better for entrepreneurs and job creators of all backgrounds, races/ethnicities and income levels.
