Richard is a lifelong small business entrepreneur. His childhood days were spent collecting cans and newspapers around the neighborhood for recycling and selling green beans from his grandfather’s garden at the end of the driveway. Then he moved up to database design gigs using DBase while in high school and college. Finally, he grew up to owning his law firm as an attorney, and now managing his own e-commerce businesses and digital marketing consulting business. Richard’s passion is to use his experiences (both the good, the bad and the ugly) to encourage other business owners and non-profit managers to pursue and achieve their business dreams.
