EP 20: A Fresh Take on Business in Dallas with Drew Ricciardone
In this episode, Jon and Scott sit down with Drew Ricciardone, a recent Harvard grad and newcomer to Dallas who brings a fresh perspective on entrepreneurship, economic development, and the spirit of small business. Drew opens up about growing up in Arkansas and how the women who raised him—his grandmother and mother—instilled a deep respect for business ownership through their boutique. That early exposure planted the seed for his own path in business.
With Jon and Scott offering insights from decades of experience in the Dallas business scene, and Drew representing a new generation of entrepreneurs, this episode becomes a cross-generational conversation about what drives success here.
