All of them are performing at a very high level, and I take inspiration from them. Think about that.

Let’s be real… I was raised in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia and I had a privileged upbringing. Right after that trip, I decided I was going to leave Atlanta and explore a new city.

When the night is over and you’ve made new friends, go home and watch Housewives of Atlanta – it’s your secret. Avoid being labeled as startup from a “special group” program. Shed the inferiority complex.
