A SUNY Brockport student impact meets real-world business success.

SUNY Brockport School of Business and Management Student Paige Elliot partnered with small business owner of KeyStone Admin, Michael Sloan to bring his brand to life in a powerful way:
“Paige didn’t just design a logo—she brought my vision to life in a way I couldn’t have imagined. What she created captured the heart of my business so clearly that it moved me to tears. For the first time, I could truly see what I’m building.” Michael also serves as the pastor of the First Congregational Church.

With guidance from Kristine Rudgers, Business Advisor/Assistant Director at the Finger Lakes SBDC, Michael also strengthened his operational structure, clarified service offerings, refined his positioning, and navigated financing options while managing multiple business entities.

This is what collaboration, creativity, and community look like.
