註釋
His Journey began after Dave Koch was released thirty-three years ago, on August 7, 1980, at the age of 24. Koch was released on parole, from the dungeons of both federal and state sentences of 18 months to five years. Koch made the commitment to never return to prison, and he set out on his life-ling journey, reentering mainstream society and pursuing a new life and careers that included: Flight Instructor, Airline Transport Pilot, Software Developer, and co-founder, President & CEO of the 68th Fastest Growing Company in America. Throughout his career as a pilot, Koch earned all of his commercial and instructor certificates and ratings, including the highest pilot certificate attainable - the Airline Transport Pilot Certificate. Koch spent many years providing flight and ground instruction, and piloting corporate jets, including the Learjet, Cessna Citation, and Israeli Westwind, as well as many turboprop aircraft. Along with his business partner, Koch co-founded Fiber Network Solutions during 1995 and served as its Chairman, President and CEO until the company was sold in 2003. Fiber Network Solutions was one of the companies that built the infrastructure of the Internet in North America. Fiber Network Solutions was started on a shoestring. Among his many recognitions as CEO, Koch earned the Entrepreneur of the Year finalist, Best in Business, and he was twice distinguished on the Inc 500 List of Americas Fastest Growing Companies. His life and career began after Koch was released from prison. His compelling 30-plus year career as a member of mainstream society provides the irrefutable evidence that a successful reentry into mainstream society, a path normalcy and legitimacy, and all of the rich rewards that life has to offer are attainable after a felony conviction and an incarceration event, or any other challenge life presents. Whether a person wants one or not, they are going to have a journey. The destinations of their journey are dependent upon the choices they make during that journey. - David J. Koch
