CQ writes: To a certain degree, your friends define who you are. You identify with them and admire them for their best traits and often take on the characteristics that you admire in them. This series will profile some of the amazing people that I have met over my years in music and the food service industry. I'd like to share with you how fantastic they are. Starting on the first Friday in February, I will publish a different Fabulously Fierce Friend's answers to a standardized list of questions along with a little of their backgrounds. I think you will enjoy reading their responses as much as I have, and maybe even learn a little something along the way too.
