Q: Where are you from and what did you do before opening your business?
A: I was born in France and lived in Hong Kong, London and Los Angeles while growing up. My family settled in Los Angeles.

After 10 years with Avnet I went to work for ADT Security and then into the security business with a friend. I opened my own business three years ago.
