CEO had the pleasure of meeting with Erica Bash (Partner & Founder) & Kathie Opel (Partner & Founder) at the beautiful offices of Opel Bash Group this morning!

From the moment you step foot in their front office, you feel welcomed and comfortable. From the amazing smells to the soft colors and furniture, the environment of their space was created with purpose and intentionality in an effort to create a comfortable, welcoming space for their clients and team.

Opel Bash Group specializes in estate planning and legal structuring for businesses. Both owners spoke with our group about creating a business and building a strong team. They also spent time discussing the importance of assessing risk when developing a business and which avenues to consider for establishing protection of your assets and partnerships.

Erica & Kathie, we cannot thank you enough for opening your doors to us this morning! Not only is Opel Bash a financial supporter of Edwardsville CEO, they both donate their time annually for our visits and Kathie serves on our board of directors! Thank you for your time, energy and resources toward our program, students and community!
