Jarrod Foster is the co-founder and Chief Operations Officer at Elephant Rock Garden Supply, LLC. He is responsible for providing Northeastern Oklahoma and the Tahlequah Community with effective products to assist with gardening and farming needs.
His experience as a former Telecommunications specialist in the U.S. Army allowed Jarrod to train and mentor soldiers in professional and technical skills. He also helped transitioning service members use digital tools through programs like Boots to Business. His mentorship has helped several entrepreneurs leave the service with their best foot forward and get their businesses online. Jarrod’s goal is to help small business owners tackle the digital divide and make their businesses more visible. Now he will bring the skills he used in the military to benefit rural communities as a Digital Coach. If you have any questions, please email Jarrod at [email protected]. |
