What's new?
sprucing up
Happily, the spring and summer months were very busy. Spring cleaning (and summer cleaning, too) just slipped by without having time to spruce up this Web site. Now that we are into autumn, it's time to rake a few leaves, both outdoors and virtually on this site. You'll notice the addition of Breaking through the clutter on our company page, updated news and events on our news page, a new quote from R. Larrameni on our work page and a bit of rearranging here and there. Enjoy.
a labor of love
During my off hours, I helped compile a family treasure. This CD features my Ma playing 45 family favorites on the piano. She sings, accompanied by her nephew, Syd Tenenbaum, and yours truly! I used this labor of love as fodder for a Toastmasters speech, now posted on the speeches page. For a preview of what's on the CD, just listen to this.

Take a look at Finding a Needle in a Haystack and Trimming the Fat as well as other case studies that showcase our work.
