“ Sharp Shooters offers the West Virginia business community a fantastic vehicle to celebrate and retain our state ’ s most treasured resource — our people . It is encouraging to see West Virginia Executive ( WVE ) and its sponsors recognize this dynamic new group of leaders for their talent , skill and commitment to achieving a burgeoning and thriving state for every Mountaineer to be proud to call home . The event was particularly special for me because I was able to enjoy it with my son and witness the next generation of West Virginia ’ s business leaders in action . Thank you to WVE for providing the platform where so many Sharp Shootersʼ success stories can be heard and for the absolute difference they make in our communities . There has never been a more exciting time to call West Virginia our home .”
