Your most recommended books for aspiring entrepreneurs:

  • The Zigzag Principle, by Rich Christiansen
  • The Goal, by Eliyahu M. Goldratt

Best advice for aspiring entrepreneurs/favorite quote: 

  • Find somebody who doesn’t think the same way that you do. If your partner has a different set of skills rather than the same skills you have, you have a better chance for success.

Three notable achievements:

  • Having a good marriage and family life.
  • Starting and growing the business that I am in.
  • I always try to find a way to give back. I think that’s actually where true success is.

A most common mistake you observe in entrepreneurs/business:

  • Thinking that marketing is the easy thing to do and the easy part of getting something started.

Areas that you feel most comfortable offering advice to students:

  • I’m more process-oriented than most people. I think that being able to see where they are at, and where they want to be, and try to develop a plan to get there are probably my strengths.

Charitable interests; boards you serve on, etc.:

  • As far as charities are concerned, most of it is SUU.
  • I’m very passionate about the Shakespeare festival and supporting theatrical and musical events in our communities.
