1/ How do you define success?   

Being a better person to others today than I was yesterday.

I actually got into the industry by answering a newspaper ad for a position in 1983!

4/ What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?  

Life is a 3-legged stool (Family, Personal, & Profession).  If the legs get out of balance, the stool falls over.

 Don’t worry about things you don’t control.
