And this was when Doha was like a one camel town.

I mean, it's funny looking at the airport now, which is massive.

And it used to be an airport, like two stalls and plane A or plane B, and you get on one of them and that was the airport.

So it's very small.

And then we moved to Florida outside of Orlando probably about 25 years ago.

And so what I've kind of noticed is the company that I'm working on now, Jeeves, is also a global company.

So it's almost like a manifestation of my childhood and the fact that I grew up in all of these different places.

I then went to school for engineering.

So I have actually two engineering degrees, which...

Now I feel a lot more unleashed with all of the stuff with AI because I can start building.

But the funny story is my master's thesis was actually on using genetic algorithms to mimic money markets.

And that was basically LLMs, which was basically you'd have a end goal and it would come up with test cases, rank them.

I was in the marketing automation space.

And that company was Power Inbox, which we sold for about $106 million.

And then I started Jeeves.
