Q Would you mind kicking us off with a little introduction on yourself and the company you're building?
A Yeah, absolutely. I think the best way to understand my life is kind of framed at this realization I had when I was a little tiny kid in, like, fourth grade. I was sitting in this classroom, and I was watching some guy doing real science, and I saw him, I was like, dang, I, like, know how to do addition, I know how to do basic algebra, and, like, where the hell am I going with my life? And I realized that the world is a really scary competitive place, and I had to have some kind of heuristic by which I should get better, and so I thought to myself, alright, Every two years, I want to double in the metrics I care about, which at fourth grade was coolness. And so at that point, growing up in the South Bay, I grew up to exceptionally chill parents, an opera singer and electrical engineer who were just like, oh, son, just do whatever you want to do. And I was like, okay, every two years I will double in coolness. And so that's exactly kind of how I structured my life. And in the next two years I did stuff like tried to memorize the dictionary. Cause this is what I thought cool was when I was like.
