I am pleased to share my Q&A story in this month’s Commercial Executive Magazine. It is a story about how I grew up to be fiercely independent, raised to chase after my own success and why I left home country (Estonia) when I was 18 on my own. My parents passed shortly after I made it to the U.S. and the strength in me was strongly challenged. Hard work was my sharpest tool which allowed me to move forward and achieve many “American Dream” successes.
