This led me to study computer science in college.Early in my career I discovered our human ability is bounded by our learned limits. I worked for a Big 5 consulting company. I worked in the film industry. I worked in defense. I worked remotely from South America on tech contracts and worked as a SCUBA diving guide on the weekends. When we take an honest assessment of our Vision, Capability, and Execution - we can iterate well past the impossible. Start with the simplest thing that could work then iterate: fail faster, fail with less at risk, fail with more learning, don’t be afraid to pivot. “You can have anything in life that other people agree you should have.”Today I love the idea of making a big difference in people’s lives. I want to work with talent that have a vision that makes a difference, with funding and capability to make it happen. As I move forward I seek working with a team creating something that makes a real difference in the world. Is there room for a quality product in social media built upon integrity? Would people pay for it? I think so.
