My family trained in Tae Kwon Do together and I earned the rank of Black Belt. My favorite technique is the Jump Axe Kick. But it's been a while.
Personal Q&A
What's the best professional advice you ever received?
My father taught me to ask the following question in every interview: "Are there any questions I haven't asked that I should have?" I often like to ask variations on this question to break out of the interview script and get to a genuine conversation.
