Have You Always Wanted To Run Your Own Business?

Yes – from as early as I can remember. Growing up in St. Louis, Missouri I started my own babysitting, pet sitting, errand business in my early teens while still a student at Bishop Du Bourg High School. In my late teens and during college I had a part time business doing free lance writing in addition to part time jobs as a grocery store checker, assistant librarian and GS2 file clerk – jobs I worked at to pay my way through college and grad school.

What were some of your previous jobs/companies?

In 1977, I was hired to open a small St. Louis regional office for Computer Associates International, a start-up software company of a handful of people with a chic Madison Avenue address.

Company founder Charles Wang worked the graveyard shift as a computer operator for the landlord in return for reduced rent.

I'd fly up to New York for meetings, and find him punching holes in user guides, typing documents or cleaning - anything to make the company go.

The chaos of my first start-up proved too much of a cultural shock to my system. I quit and then watched the company skyrocket.

Computer Associates is now one of the largest software companies in the world. All of the people who were there when I was there became super millionaires or borderline billionaires because they stayed and helped the company become something.

I realized I should have hung in there and decided I needed to plunge back into the startup arena. I consequentially sought out and toiled for a series of hard core start up software related companies from 1979 until 1992 when I ultimately joined a young Richardson, Texas telecom/telephony software company, IEX Corp. This time I stuck with the company for seven intense growth years and cashed in when Tekelec acquired it in April 1999.

My buyout stock bonus combined with personal savings, off-hours consulting projects and profitable investing gave me the capital to focus full time on HairBoutique.

I am also the founder and current CEO of T&S Software (http://www.ts-software.com), a successful telephony software company started in 1995 and still successfully in business as of the 2005.
