We first met Mehmet Turkel at an SMPS (Society of Marketing Professionals Services) function where he was speaking on “Turning Contacts into Clients: Client and Business Development”. We have since become more than business associates.
We have enjoyed fine dining at Anatolia Café, where Mehmet regaled us with tales of Turkey. He introduced us to a Raki, an unsweetened, anise-flavored alcoholic drink that is popular in Turkey, and changes color when introduced to ice. We have attended a Lake Captains baseball game, bringing home a win.
Now, we wish Mehmet good luck on the next phase of his life, as he leaves Technical Assurance. We expect to hear great things about half-marathons, volunteering engagements, and perhaps a vacation somewhere warm. Maybe at Anatolia’s over a Raki?
