Laura Gavigan, founder of Mindful Matters, moved to Rochester in 2000 and has made it her home ever since. She says, “I’ve lived around the world and Rochester has it all - different kinds of people, food, music, theater and nature. Are the winters long? Yes, but it’s worth it.”

“As a small business owner in Rochester, NY it’s important to connect with the community and other small business owners.”
