"Each one of my companies "clients" have their own story to tell. I am honored to have helped them write and tell that story. The value of any new venture or sound new idea needs to be developed out of the nothingness of silence, ignorance and darkness. It ignites and illuminates the world only when the great storytelling entrepreneur lights the flame."
-Rudy A. Mazzocchi
