Quote: “My view of technology in the legal industry is the same as it is in EVERY industry – it helps make people more productive and empowers them to be able to get more done in a shorter period of time. In a perfect world, technology would give people more free time, however unfortunately, in the times that we are currently living in, we seem to be more of a slave to our technology than we are enjoying the extra freedom that it should be providing us – something for us all to work on!”
Fun Facts:
Oddest Job: When I was about ten years old, my dad worked at a meat packing plant. He used to bring home boxes of tags that the plant would use to “pin” on the meat of the cows. My job was to stick these sharp pins through holes in the tags, so they could then put the tags on the meat. It literally took me about an hour to do a box of tags (approx. 1000 or so pins per box). Within that hour, I would prick my fingers at least 40-50 times per box – and these pins were sharp! I got paid $1 per box – talk about slave labor!
Will never leave home without: My wallet and my cell phone. Sorry, that’s two things, however I never leave home without EITHER of those two things!
Greatest Fear: Spiders and large insects – just don’t like ‘em!
Greatest Accomplishment: My two beautiful daughters (19 and 23)…I am very proud of the young women they have become. I am also very proud of the two other “children” I have raised - those being the two businesses that I built from scratch/nothing to something; having previously grown Computer Age Dentist, Inc. for 14+ years and now growing MegaMeeting.com/LiveLitigation for 12+ years has been pretty special.
Craziest Hobby: I love reading, especially non-fiction books about motivation, leadership, stocks, etc. Can’t think of anything crazy, although I do know of someone who collects pens!
