Why am I here?
Every 5 years or so, I get bored with the role I’m in and embark on an evaluation, education, incubation tour. CH is part of this year’s trip, so I’m lurking, listening, learning and mapping to build a sketch of what’s next.
I’ve finally reigned in my mega stimulated brain and narrowed things down to…
🗝 🐕🦺 fresh, nutrition based solutions to combat conditions affecting too many of our dogs.
🗝 📈 marketing analytics tools, methods, and emerging technologies to bring my hands-on learning to life.
🗝 🔋 startup lessons learned and best practices.
