What did you do after graduation?

I always wanted to be an architect and by the time I graduated, PV had already served my apprenticeship time. I went to the UofA College of Architecture and then moved into the business world shortly thereafter. I was fortunate to be in the right places at the right times and was part of the teams that created the Disney Stores, the Apple Stores, the original business model for cellular, health clubs, restaurants, and many other businesses. My specialty is franchising and the Editor of the Business Section of the Dallas Morning News named my original company in 1978, "Franchise Architects." For the past 26+ years, I have studied how behavioral sciences impacts everything we do, say, act and behave and how it impacts a business.

Education:

UofA College of Architecture, University of Baltimore

Where else have you lived?

I have lived all over the country having settled into Chicago for 37 winters. I moved back to North Scottsdale on May 2014!!!! After all those cold winters in Chicago, I had enough.

Where have you traveled?

I have been fortunate to have traveled the world. I have been all over Europe, the Middle East, Australia, China and, of course, North America. Favorite cities include Avon, Paris, Rome, Lugano, Sydney, Hong Kong, Jedda, Barcelona, Rome, Chicago, Cairo, Nice, and many others.

Where is your favorite place to go?

Paris, Monte Carlo, Rome, Singapore, Sydney and more

What concerts have you been to? Which were your favorites?

Beatles, 1967 and many others.

Comments:

My business is now mostly conducted over the Internet and my youngest daughter graduated college so it was a good time for me to move back to Arizona.

From walking to and from elementary school (Boothe), Keith and I grew up together playing sports and hanging out.  As we got older, our interests changed and Keith evidently moved to Sierra Vista or someplace and I lost track of him.  The last time I saw him was our 10-year reunion and he and Joe Babinsky and I played golf.  That was the last I heard of Keith until now.  May he rest in peace.
