“Working with Wesley has been one of my great privileges. He is a highly effective leader and consummate professional. During the past two years, since Moyo Institute has partnered with CoBiz Richmond, Wesley has demonstrated passion, commitment, fortitude, and vision. He has nurtured entrepreneurs in pursuit of their dreams and shared a storehouse of knowledge about strategic planning, legal and financial resources, local and global opportunities, and the building blocks for effective business development. He accomplished these while not losing sight of the unique constraints many small and minority businesses face and continuing to push for marketplace equity. 

Wesley promotes wellness and self-care as important aspects of sustainable personal and business development. Despite the unusual challenging circumstances brought about by the Covid19 pandemic, under Wesley’s leadership, CoBiz Richmond continued to pivot to avoid service interruptions. They kept the doors open. One such idea was the weekly Rooftop and Instagram meditations offered in cooperation with Moyo Institute. He has wonderful ideas and a dedicated team that he mentors. Wesley is all about empowering others and community building. He is a true treasure.”
