I love working with really early stage startups where the outcome is still in doubt. Maybe they'll go on to greatness, or maybe they'll never get off the runway at all.

There is a lot of stuff I like. I love backpacking. I love going to an island where I can just sit on the beach and read or scuba dive and sail. I do a lot of that. I still go backpacking around Europe in the summers and staying in hostels. I love that.

For most of the early hires you make in a startup, experience doesn't matter very much, and you should go for aptitude.

The way to build billion dollar companies is to first build something people love. There isn't really a shortcut there.

If you have the opportunity to go be an early employee at a company that's just going crazy, and you believe it's the next Facebook or Google, you should go join that company.

I've listened to female vocalists my whole life. That's what I love. I still listen to guys' vocals and don't get taken aback a lot.
