Asheville Business Summit

Today I attended the Asheville Business Summit and had a fantastic time meeting new people, running into acquaintances and learning about other local businesses. Some of the attendees shared their story about how they started and I am inspired once again.

Jeff Makey started out in the construction trades before he found his calling training and instructing fellow employees. He works with businesses to create tangible training programs and literature to standardize the new hire process.

Victoria Hensley works with All Souls Counseling Center, a not for profit therapy center dedicated to providing mental health therapy to anyone. They work on a sliding scale, use donations, and grants to provide these services to those in need.

Rebecca Morris is a trained actor that found her calling alongside her husband installing solar power for industry/commercial clients across the Carolina’s.

No matter the avenue people choose in the business world locally I am still inspired by the passion each person brings to their area of expertise.
