How Pre-Hype Helped Me Get Into the Startup World

I was just coming from like, you know, on paper, I'd worked as a community organizer and I had worked as a paralegal. So fortunately, I happened to live with a very successful photographer who had lots of roots in the arts community. And he actually, he was one of my references that basically helped vouch for the fact that I'd be able to help build the artist community. That's pretty unrelated to the tech was how I got my first job in tech.
