The Pros and Cons of Being an Engineer Turned Investor
Yuri: I always wanted to be an engineer since I was probably like six years old. And so when I was an undergrad, I'd actually started a company that was like a web hosting company. That was my first foray into entrepreneurship. After grad school, I met another PhD student and he and I started a company together. When it was just an idea, we decided to apply with it to Y Combinator. It was back in 2010 and got accepted, moved on to the Bay Area.
