    As a Regional Administrator for the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) in the Great Lakes Region, I oversee a geographic area of a federal government agency that deploys roughly $38B financial capital, conducts multiple outreach and training programs, including business development of multimillion federal contracting for entrepreneurs. I support the agency mission toward empowering entrepreneurs and creating jobs, while embedding equity for fair market competition so that financial wellness and wealth-building is strengthened across industry private, public, nonprofit and philanthropic sectors, communities and households, especially underserved communities in support of equity.

    Across six states lead financial, capital, programmatic, and operations at SBA field offices, I advance the state and regional impact by the only presidential cabinet-level federal agency solely commited to small business in America through SBA-backed financial products, programs, resources, counseling, and SBA-recognized partners in the ecosystems. I foster equitable systems and practices in free market competition, especially for socioeconomically disadvantaged areas and owners. Strengthen capital readiness and access to capital, business development, acquisition and growth, plus domestic commerce and global export trade.
