I'm not a writer who teaches. I'm a teacher who writes.
He who can, does. He who cannot, teaches.
We're creating this new breed of techies who are going to be the ones starting the tech companies of the future.
While I'm a venture capitalist who invests in early-stage tech companies, I often feel like a professional emailer and conference call maker.
