To clarify when he was working it was literally 18 hour days and he’d sleep at the office It was insane to watch I was the first PM on a brand new team building an OS and App Store for automotive manufacturers and he was building the infrastructure for it

If you’re in NYC - I started hosting 12 person dinner parties and want more new people so please DM me if you want to come to one I usually make them really diverse to force people out of their normal social bubbles Comedians, actors, tech, finance, government, etc.
