Greenville, Mississippi, Abe M. Hudson, Jr. has and continues to attain a
tremendous amount of educational, professional, and entrepreneurial success. He

University. A true student of the world, he has visited places such as Great
Britain, Bermuda, Canada, Scotland, Mexico, Spain, Germany, Martinique (Port of

his perspective on the world and the way in which international business is
conducted.

non-profit accounts by assisting with everything from strategic planning to
sales force training to financial management. Also, Abe has instructed two
collegiate finance courses at Delta State University.
