John,
Have you ever heard the saying, "think big, shop small"?
I resonate deeply with that quote because it encapsulates the profound impact small businesses and entrepreneurship have, not only on business owners but also on the very fabric of our communities.
In 2014, my brother and I started a small business specializing in cloud computing, project management, and logistics. As a small business owner myself, I witness firsthand how these enterprises bolster our communities and offer Virginians a path to greater independence. I've personally navigated the challenges that small business owners face when striving to grow and flourish.
This is precisely why I'm so passionate about supporting small businesses and entrepreneurship right here in Virginia.
The current economic landscape has raised concerns. Virginia's private sector job growth has been stagnant, and our entrepreneurship rates have declined significantly. Access to capital for small businesses and entrepreneurs has become increasingly limited, forcing many talented individuals to operate without the resources they need.
I firmly believe that we can reverse these trends. Having walked the path of entrepreneurship myself, I intimately understand the trials and triumphs that come with it. My journey has instilled within me an unwavering commitment to making our economy work for all Virginians. I'm ready to champion your jobs and our shared prosperity.
Together, we can effect change. Let's ensure that Virginia remains a place where small businesses don't merely survive, but thrive!
We can achieve this by investing in training, creating opportunities, and championing entrepreneurship throughout our state.
Today, I'm humbly reaching out to you, asking for your support in this mission. Your generous contribution to my campaign will empower me to continue advocating for policies that empower our community.
