This will be more about me from a historical perspective. I graduated from Georgia State University and started my professional life as a bench chemist at a chemical compounding company called I.Schneid. I held down many jobs as I worked my way through college. Some of them were Restaurant Manager, Bouncer, Bartender, Mechanic, Sales associate at Sherwin Williams etc... Being a bouncer was the most fun, but I learned the most from Sherwin Williams and being a mechanic. After working at I.Schneid for a couple of years, I started developing a plan to start a company that would grow and sell bacterial cultures and enzymes into the industrial market place for remediation of various waste streams. I actually offered the idea to my boss (George Rosenberg) but he wasn't interested. He told me to start a company and he would buy from us. Actually, he said that he would be my biggest customer and he wished me lots of success. He lied! He would eventually become the source of much stress and uncertainty in my life as he tried to take over my new company and attacked me with his lawyers. I was young, naive and very scared. Because of George and his questionable ethics I depleted most if not all of my money and had to take on a partner to survive. The name of my company was Genesis Technologies and my new partner was John Kubiak. We eventually grew Genesis to a very successful multi national company. I will fill you in on many of the details later. There are a ton of stories, there are even more that concern George and the many people that tried to (some accomplished their goal) screw us over. We sold our company in June of 2008. We did pretty well (I guess). Sometimes I regret selling it and some days I am grateful. I am 45 years old and I am trying to figure out what to do with the rest of my life.
