13554What is something people might be surprised to know about you?

  • I have been performing stand-up comedy for 10 years. Mostly open mics around the Twin Cities area but I was a member of a charity group called Funny Money where local comedians performed at fundraisers. I also made it to the semifinals in two “Funniest Person” contests. I am technically a professional because I made $50 once when I performed at a Christmas party! 😉

What is your favorite quote?

  • IRed boxing gloves - isolated over a white backgroundt’s a super long quote from the 2006 movie, “Rocky Balboa.” Here is an excerpt:
    “It ain’t about how hard you hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done!” (If you would like me to recite the entire speech, I’m always happy to do that!)

What is the best compliment you have ever received?

  • A friend of mine that I hadn’t seen in years, told me that it made her happy just knowing there was someone like me out in the world. It’s the nicest compliment I’ve ever received!

MN Manufacturing Online Resource Available: Made in Minnesota

MN Manufacturing Industry – An Online Resource is Available!

MN Manufacturing Made in MN LogoMN Manufacturing Industry…there is an online resource available to you, and you may not be aware of this opportunity! APPRO Development and CERRON Commercial Properties are fortunate to work a lot with the manufacturing industry. So, when we come across relevant topics, we are eager to share.

Last Fall 2013, the Department of Employment and Economic Development (DEED) for the State of Minnesota created and released a database specific to the manufacturing industry: Made in Minnesota. There is no cost for participation in this database. It is simple, easy to use, and only takes a couple of minutes to enter your information – HERE. When you sign up, you will be joining 823 other companies (and growing) already registered in the database, according to the Small Business 101 blog post, “A Holiday Gift for Manufacturers that’s Made in Minnesota”. We were impressed by the information found here and the possible opportunities which could result from MN manufacturers working together.

On a local level, we attend the Manufacturers Appreciation Event, hosted by the City of Lakeville every fall, in our own backyard, occurring during our Minnesota statewide Manufacturers Week. Over the years, we have found that neighboring businesses had no idea what the other manufactured until being introduced to one another at this event. As a result, neighboring businesses were able to work with one another, resulting in benefits for each company.

By having this same information available on a large scale, and with the ease of an electronic database, Minnesota companies have a fantastic opportunity to work with one another, and to keep our manufacturing dollars close to home.

Just thought our friends in the manufacturing industry might want to know!
