BusinessPOV Interview about CAAT

OK, so I had a little too much scotch after CityLIGHTS, and slur a bit through the interview. But I’m still glad to have chatted with Mark at BusinessPOV (who’s doing some great journalism in Chicago) about our new high school launch. Thanks Mark!

Have I become a midlife cliché after 25 years of being the youngest, most impassioned guy in the room? Screw all that. Everything is prelude. I’ve built some good organizations, but there’s still a really great company (or two or three) in me. I’ve know...
