every person from the bay

we are literally the same

so what are you working on?

wait, my bad, i mean

what are you thinking about these days?

oh nice yeah so i've been spending a lot of time reflecting. i actually started my own substack recently. i've also been reading a lot of books. books are great, you should start reading too. i can give you some recs. i don't know if you've heard of atomic habits, zero to one, how to make friends and influence people, but they're my favorites so far.

yeah so i realized big tech is not for me so i decided to go into startups and it's been so much better. i actually work on a problem i care about now. i’ve really been prioritizing my relationships and community, i go to wework everyday now and might try to go live in a co-living house.

yeah so i just closed a seed round for my company and we're in the ideation phase. it's been pretty good we're trying really hard not to raise money if we don't need it. only pulling in vc’s and angels for our round that really align to our mission. definitely not like one of those hype-cycle startups in web3 or ai. we're still in stealth mode so i can't share too much of what's going on. you'll see us after we launch on product hunt in a couple weeks. here's our twitter, you can sign up for the waitlist. it's pretty long but since i know you, i can get you off the waitlist to try the beta. just let me know.

yeah bet of course i got you. you're a homie.

so i also picked up a new hobby, rock climbing. it's been pretty fun and i've been making a lot of friends. do you go climbing?¹

1. i love climbing but dang i didn’t realize how common this was in the bay
