 My name is Jason Harderback. I was in the United States Navy. I was commissioned from the Naval Academy in 1987 and I served five years as a surface war for officer with nuclear engineering. I did not really grow up with entrepreneurs in my family. Probably as a kid I just became fascinated with the idea of creating your job and you know that I used to read a lot of books and stories about any you know people who started with with an idea and grew it into a huge company and after I left the Navy I worked for a number of different startups in different technology fields and just kind of find myself working my way towards becoming an entrepreneur. Every bit of my success as an entrepreneur can be directly linked back to my military experience both four years at the Academy and five years as a commission officer. The most rewarding part about being an entrepreneur to me is to create something that takes on a life of its own without you. I've always found it incredibly satisfying to be able to kind of step back and see that organization continue on or thrive. Being an entrepreneur gives me the opportunity to tackle things that I decided are important. The leadership and management skills I learned in the military are absolutely essential to any of the jobs I've had let alone being an entrepreneur. To become an entrepreneur because you want to make a difference you want to change the world in whatever way you decide and to me that's the kind of mark that I want to make is doing something nobody else has ever done.
