I was born and raised in Detroit and a long distance relationship inspired a move to NYC. While I was there I felt that Detroit and its people weren't given the respect or credit they deserved for being talented, hardworking, passionate, and committed. Most importantly, as the market weakened and jobs left, they weren't given opportunities to express those traits. My wife and I agreed that for this to change, all hands need to be on deck and we chose (wholeheartedly) to come back. When I began my job search, I took note that some of the most talented and hardworking people that I know in my line of work (New York included) were at EDGE. Having known Mr. Ficano (Wayne County Executive) to be committed to business investment and job growth, I jumped at the chance to join the team when the opportunity was presented.
