Gruszka is a believer in the category and brand. This is the first of at least two Office Evolution locations that Gruszka will open.

“Business owners and entrepreneurs need workspace to conduct their business.  In my career, I have been fortunate to have been exposed to consultants, startups and the creative workforce. I participated in this workforce myself, so I understand the needs of a small-time technology consultant or a professional meeting at Starbucks,” Gruszka said.  “I am thrilled to contribute to this community with the Office Evolution brand, their support, unique service offering, and culture.”

An experienced technology professional with decades of experience in project management, leadership, IT Management, software development and more, Gruszka is excited to bring his well-rounded background to his own business.

studied, worked and live to this day. Over the years, Gruszka nurtured an entrepreneurial spirit, eventually leading to his new business venture.

“Entrepreneurship was always something inside me,” Gruszka added. “I was excited to launch a business but decided that my start-up years were behind me. Franchising with Office Evolution is the best of both worlds, one that I am confident will flourish in the Herndon business community.”
