On being an entrepreneur: "I am a great believer in owning what you work for. When you start a business, the buck stops at you for everything, but at the same time you're motivated by the knowledge that you own the successes as well as the failures. It is a constant battle, and I love the challenge. You don't get those kinds of challenges anywhere else. I've learned how to be a boss, a salesman, and a client all at once."
