When Richard Reindhart was first diagnosed with Dyslexia when he was a child, he knew he would not let some labeling by the school system get in his way of achieving his dreams and finding success. "A lot of people growing up told me that I was 'disabled' and would not be able to accomplish much in life. I saw what I had as an opportunity to be creative and solve life's problems by thinking outside the box." It's this kind of positiveness that has helped Reindhart become an entrepreneur and enabled him to help others.

With a background in marketing and experience in the direct sales industry, Reindhart is packed with the skills and expertise needed to help small business owners and non-profits grow.

New technologies and mobile apps seem to be cropping up everywhere these days, and Philly is certainly no exception to this growing, versatile market. Dubbed as the "New Silicon Valley" just a week ago by a popular news article (more on that later), Philadelphia is housing new disruptions that are aimed to solve our problems and make life a heck of a lot easier.

I do not remember the last time I actually read a novel from beginning to end without stopping somewhere in the middle of the story to jump to yet another book in my always growing library. My A.D.D. mind usually cannot sustain itself to read more than 100 pages without switching titles, but I must say, Busted had me hooked.
