Many years ago, I did not get the one job I really wanted. I was duly informed by the hiring manager, that I was just "too much out of the box."

How little did I realize then that I was ahead of my times. Maybe if more companies had been willing to hire such people, we would not be experiencing the problems we are today.

I have lived and worked my entire life with just a 'slightly slanted' view of the world. I am NOT a typical accountant. Never have liked "stuffed or starched shirts."

My philosophy is best described by three favorite quotes.

"Pretending to be normal, day after day, is exhausting."

"Genius is the Recovery of Childhood at Will." .

"Don't tell me you tried, that is just an advance excuse for failure." [My Dad]

So if you are someone who has an "entrepreneurial spirit," and is always looking for a better way and makes sure that you closely examine the ideas or processes that others say 'won't work,' or 'cost too much,' or 'not practical,' or 'too difficult,' or any other similar excuse, then by all means feel free to contact me.
