“Anybody who knows me, knows how strongly I believe in the idea of “Shooting Messengers.” My reason for that is that too often there are voices of influence in our lives that are well-meaning but unqualified to be giving advice. I only want the opinions of those who have been where I’m going. Hugh Zaretsky is one of those voices I listen to.”

“Hugh Zaretsky is a powerhouse of focus and determination. His expertise and drive are unmatched, and he knows exactly how to guide you toward success. When Hugh is in your corner, you’re already a step ahead.”
