I want to be able to look back on my career and say.

I took all the tools in my toolkit and made sure that I was investing capital that ultimately I know was making, you know, for better retirement for folks, better, you know, socioeconomic outcomes for the individuals that entrusted their capital in us.

And we are...

you know, as a private credit fund now, I mean, our capital is coming from an LP base.

The LP's capital is from these everyday people that make society run and work.

The teachers, the firefighters, the janitors, all the people, like I used to love at CalPERS, the saying of, you know, we serve the people that serve California.

I'm just wired.

I'm wired to be motivated to make sure that I am making those people proud.

And so I want my legacy to be that I built a team and a reputation for being somebody that truly, genuinely cares that the outcomes are going to make those stakeholders in a better place for their retirement at the end of the day.

Thank you so much.

It was such a delight to be on the podcast.

And I think you do an amazing job on the podcast.

So thank you for having me.

I'm really appreciative.

Well, I was just wondering, how does one accept loneliness in a mentally healthy way without giving up hope that someday they'll be able to make connections?

Um...
