It was early in my career that opened a ton of doors and it was really my first exposure to investing. I'm super grateful to it for this day because a 16 Z has such a unique model. And of course is one of, you know, the big thought leaders in the industry. But I was still so early in my career and definitely still had that inkling or interest in trying operating roles and ultimately ended up at Facebook where I worked in sales and business development out of the New York office. So I moved from California to New York for that role.
