My Beliefs

Highlighted Programs

Internships
Internship programs allow participants to gain exposure to South Carolina culture and business practices.
Fiscally Responsbile
I believe it takes fiscally responsible actions to provide stability for South Carolina’s citizens and it is our responsibility to create a business climate that fosters job development. We have the ability to capitalize on our quality workforce, good fiscal health, low crime rate and strategic location to both urban and rural areas. But we must first have the discipline, the know-how, and the determination to unleash the engines of our economic future.
Experience
I have a unique resume that includes 25 years of private sector experience working with both public and private entities to deliver goods and services, provide jobs and grow S.C businesses.
