About Jenny:
Mesa expansion
Minneapolis, MN..been here since 2006
the prototyping festival in mesa, it is the best example of community building and engagement i have seen in AZ
picking the wrong partner and throwing away 100k and a year as a result of it
My mother, she built so much with so little.
Life is not a scantron test. -Marc Chung
That’s tough, i’ve always loved Tina Fey’s Bossypants
the silly laugh my daughter has
not trusting my own abilities earlier on.
wow…. i dont know who’s crazy enough to follow this path, but i’d say set your north star on something that you truly believe in. There is no room to build a business around something you don’t believe in deeply.
