Brad Harmon, President of First Star Capital, is a Certified Lease Professional. The CLP designation is only given to those individuals that have demonstrated success in the leasing industry for a minimum of five years and have completed a thorough training program covering 16 subjects and have passed the most rigid test in the industry.
