About Bruce

First and formost I wish to help these returning vets. I have 20 plus years of experience in leasing, distrbutiion and manufacturing with my first firm. That company was an American Stock Exchange listed firm. I served there for approx. 23 yrs and became it's president.
After the sale of the above firm I started Westgate Financial Corp. which was involved in commercial lending predominently to light manufacturing companies. I was it's President and sold the firm to a bank in 2010.
I have since moved to Florida and am involved in a new commercial finance company which I started three years ago.
My resume is available upon request.
It is my sincere hope to give a little back to our returning vets.
