"The sheer amount of ambition and innovation in San Francisco is motivating, but this isn't an easy place to live in when your career is not thriving."
"I feel like I can do things here. I had an idea to start a podcast in January, and a week later, I recorded my first episode."
"Our environment defines us, and seeing everyone here put things into action has inspired me to embody that same level of ambition."
