I am inspired by Oprah Winfrey who rose from the ashes to create an empire that empowers others through knowledge and understanding.
Who Was Your Best Manager? Why? Karen Michael. She believed in me when others didn't. She stood for me, mentored me and respected me.
Your First "Real" Job? My first real job was in my early twenties, as the receptionist in my university's Telecommunications Department. That turned out to be the beginning of a ten year career. Before leaving that career, I was a Telecomm Manager for a nationwide semi-conductor company here in Silicon Valley.
