My company DSI Comedy Theater was just nominated and named as one of three finalists for Carolina Chamber 2009 Small Business of the Year. I am incredibly proud even for DSI to be considered. Our success would not be possible without my staff and the local community of students and fans.

The Business of the Year Award will be presented to the outstanding Chamber businesses that have shown growth, innovation of product, exemplary customer service, response to adversity, and/or contribution to the community.

We were humbled to be awarded 2006 Newcomer Business of the Year. I was told that DSI Comedy Theater was a business who “showed innovation in its field, creativity in its start up, likelihood of long-term success and contribution to the community” — I’ve worked hard to live up to that Newcomer Business of the Year, but today, when I read the notice about our recent nomination, it honestly meant more for me to recognize that WE ARE STILL OPEN. Despite some of the worst economic conditions in a generation, we are a small business that continues to make a significant impact on the local community.
