Note: What led you to KI? What stops have you made along the way?All of us at KI have our own answers to those questions, and we’ll be exploring those answers in this continuing Web feature, “My Path to KI.”
We continue the series with a look at a relatively new member, Darnold Blivas, a long-time Pacific Palisades resident. If you have an interesting path to KI or know someone you think would be a good subject for this new feature, please contact Michelle Morrow at michelle_jeff@roadrunner.com.
