Hi Kate,
I am 54 years old and decided to go to college. One of my assignments is to research a career, I chose greeting card designer. I need 3 sources of info., one of which is a person in the field, and I found you in the research. Would you answer a these questions?
1) What most influenced your choice for this field?
2) How much time passed between the idea and the actual start of you business?
3) How much time do you daily invest?
4) What is your best advice? 1 do and 1 don't
I admire your success and hope for its vibrant continuance
