David Ricks

• I have a passion for small business. I started young and have continued developing with an insatiable appetite for new ventures.
• I have held multiple financial consulting positions and have been a founding member of four successful companies
• One of these is my boutique consulting firm, StartupGrow LLC; I am currently working with only a few local clients
• I love meeting new people, and I encourage you to reach out if you are the same; In the words of Basil King - "Be bold and mighty forces will come to your aid"

To me, building meaningful relationships requires similar discipline to building a succesful business.

I try to focus on these aspects:

Be different - build around disruptive solutions

Make it easy - eliminate friction points wherever you can

Follow Through - at every stage of development

I am passionate about finding creative new ways to facilitate these focus points.
