Kristine Harper was about 12-years-old when her father took her to his office to take part of a “take your daughter to work day.” Tom Harper said his daughter was less than enthusiastic about his profession that day.
“She said Dad, I love you, but if this was the last job on the planet, I wouldn’t want it,” said Harper.
But as a 17-year-old high school senior, Kristine turned to her father for help in completing an independent study program. Tom Harper’s task: to teach Kristine about computer programming.
