I for some reason always thought I’d be an entrepreneur, but I kept in the closet for many years. When the recession hit in 2008, I was caught a bit off guard.

I’d like to be the Mayor of Social Media Signage It’s great to finally be the founder and CEO, even if I’m a fledgling little startup. I wish I had done this a long time ago.
