Helping leaders bring their next big idea to life

My first boss was my dad. He owned a semiconductor company in Santa Clara, CA and was a pioneer in the semiconductor testing space at the very beginning (this was way back when every semiconductor had to be tested!) Between the ages of 13-21, I did every single job in that company over summers and holidays: answered phones, filed paperwork, faxed documents, greeted customers, handled accounting, made deliveries, tested semiconductor parts, and so much more. The pay started at $3.75/hr and I think I got up to $4.75. 😂 He was a pretty hands-off boss, but supremely fair and he took me out to dinner as a treat after long days. He's still my favorite boss of all time. 💕 #boss #dadsmatter #firstjob #semiconductors
