This consultancy was named in honor of my poppy, Herman Hack, a pilot in WWII. Herman landed in Normandy, fought at the Battle of the Bulge, and liberated concentration camps in Germany. When he returned to the US, he spent most of his career as a traveling clothing salesman. Toward the end of his life, he started his dream co., Sarah Petites, named after his mother (who is my namesake), in order to design his own line of womenswear for shorter women. He would not brag about any of this.

I’m a member of the NY bar, a surfer, a marathoner, a dessert-addict, and a long-suffering New York Jets fan. Those last two are thanks, in part, to Herman Hack.
