Hello.  My name is Leexan Hong and I want to welcome you to my first blog entry.  I was inspired to write this blog this weekend when I met Dr. Boyce Watkins, a professor from Syracuse University and a well-known African-American scholar, when he was the keynote speaker at the UPPN Entrepreneurial Boot Camp that I helped pull together this past weekend.  He contributes to quite a few different blogs.  I realized that I have had so many interesting experiences as an entrepreneur over the last year or so, that other entrepreneurs could learn quite a bit from my experiences. 

On a more selfish note, I also believe that by analyzing my various experiences in my blog, it will optimize the amount I can learn from my own experiences.  I'm a true believer that experience is the best teacher.  However, in order to truly learn from your own experiences, you must invest the time to revisit these experiences and think about what went right and wrong.  On an even more selfish note, I hope to either write a book about my experiences or get involved in educational speaking about them, so this blog is in a way preparation for that portion of my life.

This first entry will lack any true substance.  It is more about becoming comfortable with the blogging process.  Here's to more entries on entrepreneurship.
