| Introduction | I have an amazing wife who directs plays, teaches acting, and makes my life beautiful. I have three unbelievably talented, smart, unique, beautiful and lovable kids (can you tell I'm proud?). I'm a lawyer who left my practice at a large Chicago firm -- Sidley -- to help start up a software company. We sold the company -- makers of InterAction -- to LexisNexis, and I've been spending a few years working within that large corporation. All great experiences. |
