An entrepreneur and intrapreneur duo with street smarts, ‘preneurial’ chops, and a penchant for storytelling. Dave and Kelli met as teenagers and have a life-long story of their own. They took separate and contrasting career paths, both struggling with the challenges of business and celebrating their career successes differently. Kelli, who “worked for the man like a dog for decades,” and Dave, who “started or ran businesses all of his life,” quickly realized there may be substantial value for others based on those combined experiences.
