He started his journey working with the Committee on Small Business in the House of Representatives and later joined the Small Business Administration (SBA) during the Bush Administration. Now at ASBDC, Tee continues to advocate for small business owners across the country.  During their conversation, Matt and Tee explore how the changing economy affects small businesses, the importance of understanding new technologies like AI, how national laws impact business owners, and best ways to connect with local SBDCs.  Further Reading: America’s SBDC | Find Your SBDC | U.S. Small Business Administration | Red Helicopter by James Rhee
