The company that I've built is the mission of the company.

And the proudest part is all the successful stories that we have had with people not only finding roles,

but also being able to rethink and regain their confidence in themselves and in their careers.

And really, there have been some cases, some stories where people have really gained a tremendous amount from our services.

And I think that probably is what keeps all of us at Mobius going.

Whenever our clients get interviews, whenever our clients get jobs, whenever our clients have something positive to say, whenever our clients tell us that I am able to take care of my newborn baby because of your service, or I am able to take care of my sick mother because of your service, those moments are extremely proud moments for us.

So I get very driven by that.

I think

Even at Google, as a manager, I always enjoyed growing people and developing people.

It's been nice to be continuing to do that at scale in the thousands now.

So I think that's been the best thing.

I think the other part on a personal front that I am most proud about is being able to create a better balance for myself for being able to spend time with my kids.

And I think...

Being able to do that right after layoff, I spent so much time with my boys.

I was being able to do that.

Even though I was working hard at my company, I think the flexibility allowed me to spend time with them way more than I would have had I been in a full-time job.

So I think both those things, helping the people, helping our clients, and then also being able to spend time with my boys, I think both those things are very happy things for me to think about.

I've made a lot of people mistakes.

I've been both impatient with people and given up on people a little bit too soon.

And I have also not given up on people soon enough.
