What did you do before becoming an entrepreneur?

I was a lawyer.

I've always had this burning desire to be my own boss and run my own business. So, before diving into the world of entrepreneurship, I wanted to make sure I had a solid foundation. First off, I landed a job in sales, which really taught me a thing or two about interacting with customers and persuading them to buy. But here's the funny part: I had this irrational fear of the telephone. To conquer that fear, I decided to take on a role as a cold caller. Man, was that nerve-racking. But you know what they say, facing your fears head-on is the best way to overcome them. And luckily I did! After that, I thought it was important to get a taste of the corporate world and learn about the ins and outs of different businesses. So, I jumped into the corporate scene, absorbing knowledge about business structures, operations, and management practices. Meanwhile, I was pursuing my other interests on the side. I taught myself programming, dabbled in design, and got acquainted with the lean startup methodology. I knew these skills would be super handy in today's business landscape. Armed with a diverse set of skills and a deep understanding of how businesses work, I felt ready to take the plunge into entrepreneurship. I mustered up all my passion and expertise and launched my very first company. Let me tell you, it's been one heck of a ride! It's had its fair share of challenges, but also some incredible rewards.
