Tommi Pryor, Co-founder

Entrepreneur

I'm bursting with ideas!

I thrive on creative ideas and innovation. What frustrates me most is not having enough hours in a day to address everything I would like to.

Under-budgeting and Under-funding

1. To be in it for the long haul.
2. To double or triple timelines and financial needs at the starting gate.
3. To be flexible.
