"I've always loved building things, and I feel there's more satisfaction and appreciation in building something when you see it grow and mature over time." "Success, of course, is down the road, and there are going to be bumps along the way, but that makes you take extra pride in creating something." 

My transition from a healthcare operations role to becoming a BrightStar Care franchisee exemplifies my entrepreneurial spirit and commitment to caregiving.
