I love music passionately. With my graduate degrees in piano performance, my greatest joy is creating elaborate piano arrangements of other composers' works. Effective musical performance requires intense attention to detail. That aspect of my musical background has created habits that I find wonderfully useful in the accounting field, where attention to detail is king. Teaching piano instills patience and validates honest communication. It has equipped me for a somewhat diplomatic role in business which I find of great value here at Seek. Helping other people identify and solve business problems is a natural extension of my work in piano instruction.

Here's the random stuff...

1. Blue or black pens?  Why?  Blue for personal, black for business. Reason: blue is friendly, black is serious.
2. Ideal vacation (no budget limit, 2 weeks maximum)?  Two weeks at 7 Mile Beach in the Cayman Islands, including skinny-dipping at midnight with friends (again).
3. Best Halloween costume you’ve ever worn?   Striped prisoner's garb with long white beard, lettering on shirt back saying company's "chain-gang."
4. Something nobody at Seek knew about you before you answered this question?  I was a strident political activist in my youth (shortly after the Peloponnesian Wars).  
5. Do you sleep with one or two pillows?  Why?  One pillow. My bed is too narrow for two (people or pillows).
6. If you had to live on nothing but fast food for two weeks, what would be your meal of choice?   Pizza!
7. Mac or PC?  Why?   I have no experience with Macs. 
8. It’s a warm summer night and you’re sitting on the front porch...what drink is in your hand?   Lemonade; I am, after all, from Mississippi. 
9. Worst job you’ve ever had?  Baby-sitting kids while feigning piano instruction.   
10. Favorite automobile you’ve ever owned?  My brand-new (at the time) 1966 forest-green Ford Mustang.
