As President-elect Joe Biden continues to fill out his cabinet, he s expected to pick Isabel Guzman for the top job at the U.S. Small Business Administration.
The Wall Street Journal reported on Thursday that Guzman, a former deputy chief of staff at the SBA during the Obama administration, would replace Jovita Carranza as administrator. Under Obama s tenure, the role was elevated to cabinet level, a sign of the import of small businesses to the nation.
While
Inc. has yet to sit down with the incoming administrator directly, Guzman, a Latina, is widely considered to be up to the task of running an agency that has become increasingly vital for the health and wellness of the nation s millions of small businesses.
