Alan Macomber’s Summary

Corky & Company is a children's outerwear manufacturer started in 1994 by my wife Kim and me. I have an undergraduate degree in electrical engineering, an MBA and was an executive for a large aerospace company. While working in aerospace I had the opportunity to do business in many countries, so I'm comfortable outside the borders of the USA.

I've started four companies, three succeeded and one failed. I consider the failed business to be a decade ahead of it's time. I started a dating service in 1985 and I now think what could have been if it had been 1995. Maybe a dot com millionaire?
