Describe your typical workday.
It's usually a long day, and there are certain routines. However, being an entrepreneur, every day may bring new challenges and developments.
Is this where you imagined you'd end up?
I have reached some goals, and missed others. But I haven't ended up anywhere. I am in motion.
What's your proudest professional moment so far?
I like to create and achieve. So, every footprint left behind is a proud moment. My company produces interactive postcards. I remember the first time I watched people
look at our products on display, and a boy of perhaps 12 years saying, "this is so cool."
What's your favorite memory of Bloomington or IU?
Simply being a part of this vibrant community. Studying, working, hanging out on campus, performing as a Singing Hooser, the first homecoming, WTIU, IU basketball.
