Hey there Arnold Vazquez here, your host for the Central Coast Entrepreneurs. Community is everything in California's Central Coast, and you don't have to go at it alone.

As a new business owner I am learning something new everyday, and I hope to grow with you because community over competition is my belief, and I invite you to be part of this journey! And I invite you to join our community of like-minded people!
