When I joined EO, I had no idea what I was getting myself into.  It only took one learning event to realize I was just plugged into the most passionate, innovative and successful group of entrepreneurs in the world.  I had been working “in” my company for over 8 years without any professional training or peer network.  Within one year of EO membership, most of my time was spent working “on” my company.  Trust me, it feels fantastic.  I knew right away I wanted to give back to the organization that has given me so much.  As this year’s incoming president, I am truly humbled and excited to team up with the member leaders on the EOSEVA board to take this chapter to the next level. I am proud to announce the launch of our EO Accelerator program as well as the My EO initiative.  Bringing these online over the coming months will be challenging, but the quality and talent of our board is staggering.  I have no doubt we will be successful thus brining significantly more value and quality experiences to our membership.  I am excited about our future and look forward to working with you.
