"My name is Kelli Evans and for almost 20 years I dreamed of owning my own gift shop but had all but given up. Circumstances arose that convinced me that it was the right time. I contacted EVC and Dave Mooklar had the ball rolling almost immediately. So on a "wing and a prayer" and a loan from Coast National Bank, I opened "Violette Wings & Giftey Things in Atascadero on November 26, 2010! I am so thankful to Dave Mooklar at EVC for believing in my dream and helping me to secure a loan with Coast National Bank."
