One of the best ways to learn about "Us" is to access my main website where you can find out all about the company, i.e., Emphasis on Excellence, Inc.

To access more information about me than you might ever want to know, you can go to my curriculum vitae, which I try to keep up-to-date.  Just go here and it will show up as a PDF. 

Some quotes that illustrate who we are and what we espouse in our company (and that we intend to have well-represented on the Owning Words for Literacy site) include the following:

  The important thing is not so much that every child should be taught, as that every child should be given the wish to learn.

~John Lubbock

The beautiful thing about learning
is that no one can take it away from you.
