  • Episode 26: Old Business is Starting to Feel Like New

    The first step I'm taking in ways to look how to grow the firm are the main positions I'm considering filling.  As I have been looking into these positions i realized that in order to find people who are a good fit into the company, I need to define what the culture for the company is for what I'm trying to build.  If you would like any more information in these positions, please visit my company's website: www.dauntlessdc.com, and fill out a contact form.

  • Episode 21: Ideas for a New Business

    Every now and then I start thinking about starting a new business.  I guess it's the entrepreneur spirit (or disease) of owning a business that gets me thinking about this.  Recently I've had an idea for a business that is stuck in my head, so I decided to free that idea and discuss it in this episode.
