I am deeply appreciative to both Chris and Bill (Shaddock) for this tremendous opportunity. I am honored to be a part of such an incredible organization,” added Rank.
FNTI is now licensed and operational in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona, Florida, Colorado, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Tennessee with expansion plans in 2021 to include 11 additional states and more after that.
“I’m excited that our growth and success is attracting attention and talent to our organization. Our company philosophy has not changed, but our focus has.
