San Antonio-based Usio Inc. may not be a household name, but it operates in the background of a lot of people’s lives.

“A lot of times you’ll use us and you won’t even know it,” CEO and President Louis Hoch said. “But we sit in the middle of a payment transaction and take money from a consumer or business and pay out the business.”

I once asked her, “What do you do with criticism?” As a Democrat and a woman, she was getting more than her share of verbal attacks, and this was before Twitter and other social media platforms.
