Musings

"My mother told me that my first word was 'why?' Since then, my curiosity has led me to places I’d never expect and of course many random web searches (or the library in my more youthful days). But the question has also come to symbolize my perspective on life. I’m an observer by nature and continually ask myself why things are the way they are—or aren’t. And fortunately, I’ve found a profession where that comes in handy."

"I’m not a quote person."

Prior to joining Lippincott, Nital worked in brand management for Kraft Foods and Revlon as well as at Cornerstone Research where he managed valuation analyses.
