>> I graduated from Penn State in 1979 with an accounting degree.
I sat for my CPA exam, passed it, worked for Peat Marwick Mitchell, which it's now KPMG.
I did that for about two-and-a-half years and left, went to private.
Worked for an educational company.
Worked for a telecommunications company.
And then eventually was a CFP of a management consulting firm.
So that was about an 18-year span of operational CFO-type work leading up to that.
My wife was in media.
And she started to do some recruiting after we had our first son.
And by 18 years of me doing financial management related, I wanted something different.
So we kind of put our heads together and we started this company.
She actually started first.
I was CFO-ing and doing kind of the bookkeeping for, you know, some things she was doing.
And we joined forces and we never looked back.
It's just been an uphill ever since.
