Chris Vessels
(current board member, up for re-election)
Total Office Products & Service, 3326 Kramers Lane, Louisville, Kentucky 40216
I want to create a strong, local business organization that can help local, independent businesses, like mine, to grow, thrive, and compete against the national chains. As well, I want to continue to make Louisville the unique & diverse world-class city it is, but can't be without a strong base of local, independent businesses.
Jordan Clemons
Langley Capital Management, 2225 Lexington Rd. Louisville, KY 40206
Community service and personal growth are one and the same, and there is no better place to make a tangible positive difference than Louisville. By giving my time to organizations which resonate with my personal beliefs, I’ve been afforded opportunities I would never have had otherwise. I intend to build my business by contributing to the karmic circle of life, and it has worked so far. More generally and less metaphysically, LIBA is just a great organization with awesome people, and I’d be honored to help it thrive and grow for many generations of Louisvillians to come.
Andrew Held
Chef Space, 1812 West Muhammad Ali Blvd.
I have just recently joined Chef Space and am excited by our mission to cultivate, expand, and improve the local entrepreneurial food landscape. It seems that there is a very organic and important overlap between our organizations. Whether or not I am invited to join your board, I feel that Chef Space will benefit by becoming involved with LIBA and the individual business it serves. Additionally, I believe that by virtue of our own roster of member entrepreneurs, we might provide valuable, real-time insights into current local marketplace issues.
Shaun Spencer
Trimen Solutions/Trimen Career Placement Solutions, 332 West Broadway, Suite 605, Louisville, KY 40202
I enjoy helping my community and I love working to promote and educate small business owners and entrepreneurs, so serving on LIBA’s Board affords me the opportunity to do both!
Michael Trager-Kusman
Mperfect, Rye, and Galaxie, 900 E Market Street, Louisville, KY 40206
As a local business owner myself, I think it is a great way to help represent a growing community and really work to make sure our needs are being taken care of. Operating a business is very challenging and I believe I can help LIBA reach out to members and help with these challenges.
