Tell us about your background and how you got into the packaging industry.

The founder of Sealstrip was looking to hire a business manager. I was introduced as a successful entrepreneur who had recently sold my businesses. His intention was to hire a man. I was interested in the company because it was a manufacturer selling business to business. During the interview I was intrigued by the opportunity of working for a creative company focused on adding convenience to consumer packaging. Nobody likes a hard-to-open package, and I thought the company had a good market opportunity for growth.
