Work history

Founder
Inventing Daily
2012 – Present (3 years)
InventingDaily.com is a collective marketplace for inventors to launch new products. As an inventor, I know how hard it is to get a product on store shelves. Our goal is to help other inventors be more strategic in their planning and get there faster. We also help the beginning inventor who has no idea what to do first. We coach them and help them firgure out the best path to success. For some, it will be going into production. For others, it might be getting a licensing deal. Our mission is to help them along the way and avoid as many pitfalls as possible. We have successfully put several deals together in 2014 and are looking forward to many more in 2015.

Let me know. As a Relocation Specialist, I know what is involved with all aspects of the business as well as the personal side of a family moving. How can I help you today?
