I also, I think, look up to certain like industry founders that I think were willing to do like the hard work, like really roll up their sleeves and figure things out. I'm a big fan of Databricks as an organization. I think they had like kind of an interesting early journey. And there's a lot of similarities. They had a very technical team and then they had to figure out how to build a business.

And I think they did. And a huge part of that story, it does feel like it's just like being willing to recognize what you don't know and embrace it and just learn things. I would say that I'm fortunate to have a lot of role models and people to look up to in various aspects. And I try to be self-aware.

I think it can be hard sometimes when you're in the zone, but I don't know, I feel like I'm still learning.

It's a weird job. Like nothing preps you for it. There's nothing you could read. There's no one you could talk to. And you can feel very self-conscious about all the mistakes you're going to make and all the things you do. And I think the thing that helped me the most and the advice I got was just being reminded of that. You don't have to know how... Everything works.

You're not going to be able to know how everything is supposed to be. I remember when I was earlier in my career, I would think to myself, oh, I have to become like a C-level somewhere to be able to start a company. And the reality is, even if I had done that, I would still not be prepared for it. the level of like ambiguity and the questions and open-ended questions and mistakes I would make.

And so just being really comfortable with the fact that you're just constantly going to be learning and, and not lose that enthusiasm or excitement, I think is like the most important thing.
