And I think it doesn't take you so much to figure this out. Like immediately when you sit down and start having a conversation, then there you also get the sense whether you want to spend another 10 more, 15 more minutes to explore further or not. Because this thing that you feel it in your heart before your head, like if the person is really driven to that. I am so much enjoying the conversation, but at the same time, I know Cameron has a couple of questions for you too. Let's just, ⁓ yes, you might Cameron.

Yeah.
So I know you did send a message saying you have to jump. I guess there are.

Yeah, I a hard stop actually. I'm through outside, but yeah.

⁓ okay.
can send them through afterwards and get them answered and that's perfectly fine. I amazing listening to you. It's been like genuine. getting off this call with just like so much energy about it and it's infectious. So I just want to say good luck to you.

time difference, I don't really compute properly. My final, because we have a little tradition, the previous guest asked a question. Do you have like a minute? It's just a minute question. Nothing wrong.

Yeah, yeah, go for it. I'm just gonna let him know that,
Okay, just do that. And in the mean while, then I'm going to pose the question. Yeah, it's coming from Matthew Sutton. He's an investor, private investor. Also, he's helping entrepreneurs in Harvard University to make their dreams true. So his question is, what is the moment that played the most important role on directing your life's journey? How has it shaped you?

Yeah, feel free to ask the question. I think deaf plays a very important role in the journey. I've had weirdly more near deaf situations than most people I think my age. ⁓ I've gone to the ER like over 20 times for allergic reactions, like anaphylactic allergic reactions. ⁓ one time I was in Korea and was like a couple days before I was supposed to turn 20. I was like intubated, they had like IV and everything. Like I was like completely like about to pass out. And this is during spring break and I only thought of two things, which is one, how sad it would be if, you know, I'm the only child my parents saw, their only child died in front of them. And number two is I didn't think about relationships. didn't think about my classes. I didn't think about midterms. I didn't think about the internship. didn't think about my friends. The only thing for some reason I thought about was like how sad it would be if I wasn't 80 years old. I woke up at my deathbed and be like, damn, at least I tried or I put people on Mars or at least I died tried.
