This is my first ever blog. Who knew that I would run into Stephanie of ListenShare at a kids school function and that she would/could ever convince me to begin writing about my entrepreneur and invention experiences? “Social Media” what is that? After a great deal of consideration and reading I have decided to put it all out there… hopefully it will benefit others as well as me, my family and business friends.
To start, I’ve never had what I consider a job.
In my twenties I started a landscape company in Atlanta, Georgia where I was born and raised. At that age, what could be better than getting to be outside working with your hands, for yourself, in such a beautiful city?
In my thirties I started a waste management/recycling company based on my first invention. I still own and operate this company and will provide more detail if people would like to hear more. Oh the pains of getting that one started…it about broke and killed me!
In my forties (early)…A business based on a straw for a JuiceBox or Pouch that doesn’t leak or squirt? Yep, and it is one hell of a story…
Heather and I shall try our best to tell an interesting story from all perspectives, mom/wife, father/husband and entrepreneur.
Thank you for visiting our blog. We look forward to sharing our journey with you.
