It’s funny; I never really saw myself as an entrepreneur. When I’d hear that word, or read it, I’d think ‘someone with an MBA’ or someone who created a company in Silicon Valley or launched in Kickstarter. I haven’t done any of those. And even though I have worked for myself for twenty some odd […]
