J. Nikolaus Bauman’s Summary

I've spent time as a student rep for Apple, Inc., an account manager for Xerox, a software development intern for IBM, and a software development intern for Apple, Inc..

I have learned that the only sales pitch I want to be giving is for a company and product I truly believe in; the best way to do that is to start my own company and build a service with the help of like-minded, talented colleagues.
