Summary

Andy Wilson lives in Central Oregon, which he claims is an adult playground. He loves to ski, hike, and enjoy all outdoor recreation available to him. His favorite food is a medium-rare steak, which I gotta say is an excellent choice. He got his tech degree in the 90's, and fell into the world of legal tech. Previously, Andy worked for a company that printed email for legal teams - like truck loads of email. He decided to startup a business to digitize this process, using servers in his dining room. Eventually, he moved to the cloud, and started using AI. This is the creation story of Logikcull.
