Eliot's Story
Life
After SHS graduation I went to BYU for a year before serving a 2 year church mission in Vienna, Austria. I came back and finished in finance at BYU in '87.
Married Marcelle Baker in 1985. She's from Saratoga, too. Her mother owns all the Challenger Schools. We have 6 wonderful kids, ages 1 through 11. 5 girls and a boy. We just grew out of the minivan, if you can believe it!
After BYU, we moved to Boston where I worked with Bain & Company, a strategy consulting firm. I took off 2 years to go to Harvard Business School and then back for 2 more years at Bain (this time in Dallas).
In 1994 we moved to Utah, where I joined a 3D graphics software company as CFO. After we sold the...Expand for more
company in 1998 I started an internet venture called Freeport. We sold that earlier this year. I've since advised two INC 500 companies and I'm now starting a new wireless venture.
So, now we're living in Utah and very much enjoy it. I make it back to the bay area every month or so on business. (Last time I stopped at Kirks for a burger...yum).
So, I've been busy, but I'm pretty happy with everything but my thinning hair :-)
I've heard recently from Mike Anderson, Tim Nora, Angela Wilkenson (she lives right around the corner), and Greg Blunden.
