"Charlie Alexander started his first company almost 4 decades ago and has built, run, and/or exited 19 small and medium size businesses, in 9 different industries ever since. As a seasoned entrepreneur he decided to ""add letters after his name"" and obtained both a law degree and an MBA in his forties to make himself even more knowledgeable in all things business. He has a foot in each camp; one in the down and dirty 'life in the trenches' realm and one in the high level, strategic world. Having won numerous awards, being profiled and quoted in many publications and appearing on a number of television shows and interviews he still considers his greatest achievement as help his wife in raising 3 adult kids, that are all productive members of society - and he's got 3 really great grandkids too."
