I got connected through Dylan Field through one of our investors.

And I have always been a fan of him personally because he's like the dream CEO that I want to be, which is so level-headed, an amazing operator, has been through so many different storms and processes of like building a company for 13 years.

And this is just the beginning for Figma too.

And like, this is just the start of it, which is crazy to think about.

So just as an operator, like I'm a huge fan boy.

And then...

Got to meet him, share the vision of like, this is why I'm obsessed with harnessing.

And we were talking about making the Figma wire harness design.

This was two years ago when we wanted to digitize a lot of the inputs into our factory.

So I spent a lot of time with him on this is how we're building the manufacturing side, this is how we're building the software side.

And we went on some long walks.

We spent a lot of time in the factory.

and then one day i was like i'm going to go out to fundraise and he's like i would love to you know put in some type of uh allocation in the round and then you know long story short ended up co-leading it with a civ which is another really great investor of ours who's been incredibly helpful throughout this whole process too um and i think the advice i got um early on was

Choosing the right investor is really important, but also choosing the people you really want to build this company next to.

And you respect all of the lessons they have learned or all the things that they have built in the last few years or the path they've taken is incredibly important.

And as much as I can learn from great operators like Dylan and great investors that we have on our cap table, the more successful Senator will be.

Yeah.

Sadly, I've never actually listened to the David Senra podcast, but maybe I have to.

Senra is just the word harness backwards.

We just took out the H and the S because we're deleting the horseshit of harnessing.
